This is not a gaming machine. Buy it if you are running home-office applications, work stuff, or really anything that doesn't require high-end video performance.

The good: Nice dual-core processor and enough memory and disk space for anything I'll be doing. Comes with fast network interface, which is good if your home or office is wired for 1000 gigabit per second transfers (which many offices, but currently not many homes, are). Machine is spacious internally and easy to work on, if you're inclined to do that sort of thing.

I saw the previous review above....
>We bought a Gateway desktop and Windows got hosed for some reason. We called 1-800-GATEWAY for support. Guess what? If you buy a Gateway anywhere but their website you must call a separate toll number. WTF!?
Don't know about that...
>Then we needed to restore it but the restore partition was bad.

>Had to get the recovery disk. They charged me $20 for a $1 CD-R. Then it wouldn't work,
??? Get another one... should be free now....
>and they wanted to charge me to tell me how to use it.
Uh.... put disk in PC... start it.... press ALT-F10 and then follow instructions...
>Again WTF? These people are horrible. Save yourself a lot of trouble and get a Mac. Get HP. Get an abacus. Anything but Gateway.
Ok.. my turn...
