Consumer review (newegg.com)

Satisfied

I like the "leather" finish, but i doubt it will last very long. The keys take a little time to get used to, but still operational. Installing after market memory is easy and worth the extra cost. I recommend this laptop as a desktop replacement for...

Love the Screen very clear picture. Im most impressed with the price, this model is loaded with great hardware for the asking price. I really enjoy the wireless, gets a very strong signal compared to my HP laptop. Processor is able to keep up with all...

With Intel integrated graphics don't expect to play any great games. Although the monitor looks great, the resolution is an odd size, which is not compatible with some applications. The nicest this computer will look is the first time you take it out...

Elegant and Beautiful

I bought this machine before Newegg had pictures of it up, so I went based on what I could find on the web, well I wasn't disappointed. The illuminated keyboard is very sweet, wish you could change the color though the orange glow is nice.

Sleek and fast! It has plenty of power, a nice screen, enough battery life (bout 3.6hrs when full), and lots of other little perks you can expect from any recent model laptop. (digital controls, scroll control on pad, decent integrated webcam)

Great Bargain!

Again, it was a great bargain. Glad we took the time to find this one

Seems to be well made, solid. It looks great, especially the lit keyboard. It was easy to use right out of the box. Although there weren't any recovery disks they were easy to make and low cost on dvds. It seems to be fast, wireless was great, the...

Gateway MC7321u NoteBook Intel Pentium dual-core T3200(2.00GHz) 16" Wide XGA 3GB Memory DDR2 667 320GB HDD 5400rpm DVD Super Multi Intel GMA 4500M

There's an "ambient light sensor" that'll make your whole screen flicker until you turn it off on the BIOS menu. Some genius decided to put the sensor in a place so your screen's light sets it off. Other than that, the design is great.

First of all, the computer is gorgeous. The keyboard lights up orange, it's very shiny, and it's pretty darn quiet. It only takes 3 hours to charge the thing. Thanks to some of the awesome hardware, this is a fast laptop

It comes with lots of unnecessary programs, there's no backup disk in case you screw up something, and the keyboard can be a little unresponsive. Also, who wants a resolution of 1366x768

Nice system for the price

I wish that Gateway would have moved the media controls above the keyboard and then put a full 10-key number pad in, as there is plenty of room. Nice system that runs well. I have owned Gateway before and never ran into any issues so I figured I would...

This is a very decent system for the price that I paid (550), especially because Gateway has it listed as 899 MSRP. Good specs, nice monitor that's not too big and not too small

The keyboard doesn't respond too well. I am always backspacing because it seems like the keys have to be hit just right to respond. It may just get some getting used too as I use a normal keyboard at work all day
