 Anything in particular you found bad ? I was pretty stunned with their 3
year waranttee, and the fact that they'll send someone out to your house to
fix a machine without quibble. When I did tech support for Gateway 2000, we
were told to say anything to avoid staying on the phone more than 12
minutes, and told to do anything that would help avoid sending out an
on-site engineer.

 One thing about the machines; they are featureful, and not very expandable.
So yeah, you get a SCART port etc. but good luck putting a different video
card in later.
