[Gracie2006]

I have had several Gateways and have not been entirely happy with them. I really like the Dell computers. I can tell you I had some issues with Vista not working with all of my software. I don't know if it was Vista or Office 2007, but the Word files saved with a weird extension that no other version of Word could open, not even when saved in an alternate version format. My Vista puter sits in the corner. I bought a new Windows XP for my daily work things, as my clients could not open documents prepared with Vista and Office 2007. Just some food for thought. I don't know about other manufacturers, but Dell offers a choice of Vista or XP on new computers.
