I would actually suggest people >NOT< get a Gateway, here are a few
reasons:
Bought a Pentium 60, 66, and 90. The CD-Rom that was included with it
ONLY works on DOS systems, and Gateway absolutely refused to provide a
WindowsNT or OS/2 driver.
With the Pentium 60, the floppy and hard drive basically rest on the
RAM chips. In a couple 486 Gateways, chips actually fell off the RAM
chip because the drive was resting on the SIMMs.
The Gateway Pentium 60 has numerous compatibility problems with
WindowsNT 3.51.
Etc, etc, etc...
