Can't deny that some of gateway's offerings are certainly great for the price. I'd pick it up but currently i've purchased far too many computers for my to even use

Will the GPU overheat or is it good on this system?
It's a 17-inch screen, not 15. And you forgot to say that it comes with 4 GB of 1066 MHz DDR3 memory!
Sweet.. Me want one! >.
Does it bring out stupid posts from you?
really i'm getting sick of these apple fanboys who mac us regular mac users look bad. I own a mac and i dont make stupid remarks like this.
To Apple Fanboys: think before you post
just so you know that was meant for SINNN i dont know why it went on your post
but will it run crysis???
Don't know if it runs Crysis but you'll need a huge blender to answer the other typical question :)
FUCK YOU
From Engadget readers to you.
i joke.
1. joke is getting really old
2. READ THE ARTICLE IT SAYS IT CAN RUN CRYSIS
can people please start reading the article before posting?
You fail.
Thanks, I came here just for that comment haha

It's a very good price, but the processor seems rather weak for a gaming machine. Still definitely worth the money with all the other goodies.
@Mason
You sir, get a gold star!
At failing.
Nice laptop with extreme resolution. I would have loved it even with a smaller one :)
PS: if it indeed has 4gb ram and 17 inches, its even better! ;)
Yeah... does it has the awsome power of my 3g iphone? Does it compare to the first xbox and psx combined? Dont think sooo.....
Considering you probably spend half your day memorizing what Steve Jobs and others have to say about your lovely iPhone, why can't you regurgitate it properly? Bad fanboy, bad.

Hey, heres an idea...Use your iPhone to educate yourself on when you should use has or have.
Easy on SINNN. Me thinks he's being sarcastic and making fun of Carmack's reference to the the awesome power of the iPhone.
this laptop is a lot cheaper than your iphone 3g + 2 year contract.
i choose laptop
Apparently engadget is the easiest place to troll evar.
Will it blend ?
kyle kersh will definitely blend. helllooo peoplesearch.com!
I'm not 29 .
That's a shame... although it still doesn't disqualify you for the blender. In you go!
your're right, Kize, but then again if it's an _ironic_ blender, Kyle might be too emo for it
Wow.. engadget comments have turned into a regular fucking AOL chat room lately

I agree, I don't give a shit if someone is going to buy it, has bought it, selling it, downloading it, hates the price plan, eating breakfast, lunch or dinner or taking a shit. If you want to talk about this stuff join Facebook.
Can we get comments back to specifics rather than tenuous generalities.
Too true. I mean, why is SINNN still here? He's being a fucktard on nearly every post I've seen. Engadget, come on!
Anyway, looks like a very nice price/performance combo indeed... mmm... although the weight is a problem. 9.2 pounds? Doesn't sound too good for the back.
no thanks to you, really...
Wasn't it like this always?
Because the best solution to a problem is supporting it.
that's a pretty sweet desktop replacement all around for the price.
huge and fast drive, 4GB of ram, a great GPU and tons of connectivity.
can't ask for muh more.
even i, a mac user, can respect what Gateway has done here.
and, not that you'd be playing Spore on battery power, but i wonder what battery life during games is like
Intel Core 2 Duo P8400
9800m GTS
4GB DDR3 Ram
1920x1200 17'' screen
200GB 7200rpm drive
Very godly nice specs for it's price. damn..
A Blu-Ray drive would be nice though.
@ mymaclife
NO! FAIL! this is not the place to be referring to your lack of sex life.
The level of maturity recently on engadget posts is......jaw-dropping
@ mackid105
Sorry I think it's you who fails - not any lacking here.
Wanting a burger doesn't make you an anorexic - poor logic.

i love how you say that then go and post something about tenuous generalities yourself.
Can we get back to reality now and stop this imaginary blow-jobs ?
Will a blu ray disc fit Crysis? if so i want it.
rofl. u know u all luv it long time.
It will.
And so as your pron collection.
the last one they got had T5450 CPU at 1.6Ghz, it was a bit lacking there.
this one is just perfect, and still at that perfect price.
actually the last ones were updated with the T5550 with 1.8 Ghz, which still isnt the best but gateway laptops are built to be easily upgraded, replacing it is eazyyy
Will it run Mojave?
