I bought my last Gateway system from them about 1.5 yrs ago and
I've been talking to them about a new 66V system and have noticed
something - they will NOT lower their price!  The guy I used to deal
with would cave in with free shipping without me even trying!  This
guy didn't seem to want to move at all.  I'm going to try to call my
old salesman back and see if maybe it was just him, but has anyone
else noticed that they are more steadfast in their pricing? (I have
bought about 3 systems from that salesman over the years and always
got at least $200 off the total delivered price)

One more thing - the lead time on the 66DX2 systems custom
configured is *3 weeks* !!! Jeez.  I was going to order it today
until I heard that.
