I have allways had Gateway's and this is my Third, not because they gave up, but because i wanted a new. This one currently is 2 1/2 yrs old and going strong, matter of fact my 1st one is still going from what i heard (give them to Fam. Members) never had a problem other on my second one the monitor went out and they replaced that as i allways get the 3 yr warranty an i spend between $2500- 3000 on them. You get what you pay for. Then i have an Allienware Laptop that i paid $3500 for, but that is just dedicated for gaming and a backup if my Desktop dies. Wouldn mind trying a mac laptop just to see what all the fuss is all about, maybe next yr
