    "Watch Out on This One"

    by WatchDog77 on July 3, 2006

    Pros: Impressive up-front specs

    Cons: Bad expandability and quality

    Summary: I purchased the predecessor to this computer, so beware: Gateway's continued insistance on proprietary motherboards (ie, just try to add a system fan of your own choice) and poorly designed cases (making it nigh impossible to add a high-level graphics card) makes this the choice of the uninformed. The editor's commentary is pretty much right on the button. Until Gateway learns that "people hate proprietary systems"... they are going to continue having the same kinds of problems as a company that we have seen them experience in the past. They really need to get a handle on what the customer wants and needs and stop producing cheap systems that overheat and blow drives in 6 months.
