Gateway heads into China with help from distributor

Following a brief pilot progam in June, Gateway's announced that it's making its first major push into China, with the company teaming with Digital China, Inc. to offer its systems nationwide. While Gateway isn't getting specific about exactly what systems will available, it is saying that it'll be offering a "new premium line," which will consist of systems boasting Core 2 Duo processors and laptops based on the Centrino Duo mobile platform, with a few displays thrown in for good measure. Those will apparently soon be available at various retailers across the country, including Best Buy's flagship store in Shanghai. Of course, Gateway will have a fair bit of competition to contend with, including that from other US PC makers clamoring for a bigger piece of the Chinese market.
