This comment is consistent with Tom Martino's evaluation of Gateway...
today.   My sister has one. She bought a 300mhz machine with a 19" monitor,
a lot of extras.  The machine is trashed right now.
If I could get to the machine, I think (from what she tells me) I might be
able to
save it.  However she is about 1900 miles from here.   She and her husband
have called Gateway many times.  It appears that their service techs can
only
answer the questions on their charts.  The machine remains trashed.  At work
we have an old Gateway 486 that had Windows 3.11 on it.  I upgraded it to
Windows95, added some memory and it runs perfectly. (but a little slow)
At work, our new machines are all Dell.  We have had no problems with them.
My machine is a Dell Laptop.  Only thing that happened to it was the 9 pin
serial port grabbed the bottom 4 pins from the cable and I couldn't get them
out. This resulted in a new motherboard.  This could have been the cable,
not the computer.  However, since this time, every now and then when I start
up the machine, the battery is dead.
It goes into recovery and restarts without any loss of data.  I'd say all in
all, my next machine will be a Dell.
