Gateway M250E

This attractive wide-screen notebook boasts excellent battery life and a DVD burner.

Easy to tote, long battery life

Lacks legacy ports

Consumers and students with some extra money to spend on a nice little wide screen with fantastic battery life should run, not walk, to the Gateway M250E.

Gateway M250E

Despite its lackluster performance, the Gateway M250 wide screen will appeal to students and workers who want an affordable laptop for basic productivity tasks.

Thin and compact; wide-screen display is useful on many fronts; 12-cell battery offers ridiculously long battery life; FireWire port.

Lackluster application performance; 12-cell battery is extremely heavy.

With its extended battery, the well-designed Gateway M250E will keep road warriors and students computing for hours upon hours--just don't expect blazing performance.

Gateway M250XL

The M250XL has three USB ports, a FireWire port, and a 3-in-1 memory-card reader. It doesn't have an S-Video port like the Dell 700m and the Toshiba Satellite M45, but it does have a VGA port, as all notebooks should. It comes with a 60GB hard drive,...

Good performance. Good portability

Battery performance could be better

The Gateway M250XL rides the line between ultraportable and thin-and-light notebook. It's geared toward mobile professionals and serious students not looking for anything flashy.
