Big Bang for the Buck

 

I have never owned a gateway, and I've gotta say I am incredibly impressed with this computer. I have built several of my own desktops and have owned an HP laptop, but this is way more convenient and incredibly useful for the everyday user. If you're...

Really smooth and quick. Has no problem running multiple programs at one time. No problems with it thus far

None so far

Blue screens on arrival

 

Make sure when you order a refurb you are ready for the worst case, newegg has always been good to me. But still you may not have a working unit for several weeks if this happens. I'm still waiting =(

it did work for a bit, and was quite quick

Well... it didn't work

Consumer review (newegg.com)

Just bought this for College.

 

Incredibly impressed. Seems very fast and nice looking, already checked windows, sound, webcam, installed updates, logged into my network, everything seems completely functional. Very excited to put some work into this thing (I'm a PrePharmacy major at...

Have spent alot of money at newegg.com already. My main/gaming computer is an AMD Phenom II x4 965 @3.7ghz, 2 ATI 4890's in Crossfire, Asus m4a79xtd evo motherboard, Corsair 750TX, and Veliciraptor 300GB harddrive ; Was apprehensive about purchasing...

I don't see ANY at all yet. I bought this with no intent other than to do school work on. That means, I was primarily interested in the CPU power and a descent screen size/weight ratio. I browsed, and the 15" screen size range seems to be very popular...

battery woes

 

Hopefully the new battery fixes the problem. If not I guess I will be counting on newegg"s excellent RMA policies to take care of me. Well stay tuned will update my review.

Fast shipping like always newegg good job. Nice specs for the price on this gateway. Good customer service by gateway call them up and after 20 minutes trying to explain my problem(see below). The tech started the process of sending me out a...

The problem with this laptop is the battery. I took the laptop out of the box and read the quick start papers and it said to charge the battery until the light turned form red to blue. It did not say how long this would take so I waited for it to...

Powerful machine crazy price

 

I've had this machine for a few months now. I bought it from another vendor in this price range (a little more than the current sale price of 550). I love it. The machine is smoking fast and comes out of sleep in the blink of an eye. I've had no...

A blazing fast laptop with high-end hardware for budget laptop price. The i5, 4gb of ram Gigabit LAN, HDMI, etc., like this sell for hundreds more. You can't beat it. I check prices frequently and you never see laptops with these components for this...

I'm lukewarm about the keyboard and the button bar but for this price, I easily live with it

Good price, good components, not a good computer

 

Price ; Great components (CPU, hardrive, RAM, etc) ; Nice look

The keyboard is very uncomfortable ; The touchpad and its keys are not comfortable ; The biggest problem: it makes a static noise that comes from the speakers. This noise is very annoying and it sounds as if there was a short circuit inside the...

Great Laptop for the price

 

very minimal amount of preinstalled annoyances, which were easily uninstalled in about 5 minutes, never to be seen or heard from again.

Laptop has all the features as advertised. As expected, Win7 64bit, an i5 CPU, and 4GB of memory is nice and snappy. The on board graphics are great for any everyday tasks, even watching TV online. It also played Civilization 5 OK. Not as well as my...

Great value, powerful and good looking laptop

 

Replaced HDD with 60GB SSD and got a extremely fast laptop for $740. Failed to restore system image onto the new SSD for no apparent reason, so had to install Windows from scratch onto the new SSD. In general I am very skeptical of laptops. I am a...

4GB Core i5 laptop = fast, $600 = great value ; Nice looking design

Questionable trackpad buttons. No biggy, really ; Mic catches echo - Skype becomes room-sensitive ; Top cover is fingerprint magnet
