Companies have touted edgeless displays for years. But they weren’t edgeless in the sense that the display didn’t have an edge. But here’s Gateway, Acer’s budget brand, rocking what is likely the slimmest bezel in a retail notebook to date. Yep, Gateway. The budget cow computer company. → Read More
Gateway’s latest monitors are a rare balance of classy looks and technical achievements — at affordable prices of course.

It’s a red-letter day, folks: Gateway just release a $700 NV laptop with WiMAX built-in, namely the Intel 6250 Wi-Fi/WiMax card. Otherwise this is pretty bog-standard for a laptop although it does seem to mirror HP’s sexy styling on their own Envy line. WiMax connectivity comes from carriers across the country and isn’t included in the package. Press release after the jump. → Read More
The all-in-one form factor isn’t going anywhere and Gateway is just reaffirmed their commitment with two new models.

What can I do to get you into a new Acer Aspire X3 or M3 Series PC? I can’t go lower on price – my manager is already busing my stones about dropping the price down to $449.99 – but how about I throw in a “space-saving chassis” and mention they’re an “appealing addition to a dorm, bedroom or home office.” No? Still nothing?
Look, the X3 series is the high-end stuff, a good, strong machine. This… → Read More

Sometime within the coming months the world’s second largest computer maker will launch a 6-inch monochrome ebook reader, cross-platform application store and a Chrome OS netbook — along with probably a crapton and a half of computers under its Acer, Gateway, and EMachines brands. And yes, the company is working on a tablet computer says the president of Acer’s IT… → Read More
Let’s say you’re intrigued by Acer’s new Windows 7 Timeline ultraportables due to ship out this Thursday but you like saying “Gateway” more than you like saying “Acer” for some reason. You’ll be happy to know that Gateway (which is owned by Acer, by the way) has just announced two ultraportable computers that are spitting images of two of the recently-announced Timeline machines: an… → Read More

My gut reaction to seeing these all-in-one computers is that they might make a nice addition to a dorm room or an aging couple’s den. But then Gateway goes and says something like this:
“The powerful One ZC6800 Series is a no-compromise, high-performance configuration entirely suitable for serious gaming.” I roll my eyes and then look for the actual specs, to find… → Read More
Ah, mysterious Gateway tablet. Were you not leaked to Engadget by an anonymous tipster, we may not even be talking about you. But your lack of pricing and availability makes you an enigma wrapped in a riddle wrapped in a mystery. → Read More

Quick Version: Gateway’s new student-oriented NV series packs a lot of bang for the buck, although the machine is almost too heavy and bulky to function as a truly portable computer. If it’s going to spend most of its time on a desk, though, you get a fully-featured computer at roughly the price of an expensive netbook. → Read More
In the search for affordable 11.6-inch netbooks, you have a couple of enticing choices in the Acer Aspire One 751h and the Gateway LT3103. Both pretty much come from the same company, as Acer owns Gateway, and while the outward look and feel of each system is pretty similar, there are some notable internal differences. → Read More
Yeah, there isn’t much to see here. The new Gateway LT2000 netbook is basicly the same netbook that has been making the rounds over the last two years. There isn’t a single thing to set this netbook apart from the rest of the crowd besides the somewhat attractive color scheme and the Gateway branding. In fact, you probably already know the hardware specs.[PSGallery=8xkdkw5s5m] → Read More

For those too young to remember, Gateway was once a cow-oriented company. The boxes were bespeckled like Bessie and their hottest 1994 model, back when the company was still called Gateway 2000, included these bodacious cow wallpapers on the disk. Remember: this was still Windows 3.1. Windows 98 was just a glimmer in the world’s eye. There’s a full Flickr set over here if you want to… → Read More
Gateway is updating its long line of gaming notebooks with the P-7808 FX notebook. This big boy sports a cheesy-ass lid artwork but thankfully, comes pack’n the good stuff on the inside.

The UPS man just dropped off the Gateway JM30, a compact media laptop with a fairly unique feature – a round touchpad. I’ve only ever seen this sort of touchpad on Toshibas and on a few laptops from Japan, so it’s a nice little tweak. The laptop itself is consistent with Gateways more upscale line with brushed metal surfaces and a nice glossy screen. It has HDMI out – big plus – and a 2-GHz… → Read More
