Deal of the Day: Gateway LT3103
For today, online clearance giant Woot has an attractive deal on the LT3103. This is the spiritual brother of the Acer 751 and they both have an 11″ screen. The difference is that the Gateway trades in Acer’s Atom Z520 chip and Win XP for an Athlon L110, and Windows Vista. Maybe the odd parts are [...]

Once a more traditional notebook starts to cost around $400, I think that most users are better off trading up to a CULV model. For about the same cash, you get more features, an equivalent battery life, and a bigger screen. Sure, it adds a little weight, but these machines have enough power to compete [...]

With the intro of Windows 7, some new models are coming off the launching pad. Kind of a variant of Acer’s Timeline series, Gateway is coming out with their Gateway EC1430u. A few years back, this “thin and light” category was among the most expensive notebooks out there, and it is great how netbooks have [...]

With the introduction of Windows 7 officially happening in a few days, I thought it would be good to highlight a good deal on a soon to be introduced machine. The Gateway LT2022u is standard netbook fare by specs, and is quite similar to the Acer offering as Acer now owns Gateway. However, when we [...]

I have generally found any of the netbooks that are subsidized by the carriers to be rather overpriced, and underwhelming. For the $60 a month they charge for the data plan, across a 24 month commitment, these things should be free, with a rebate, and I’d still feel they were getting the better end of [...]

By now, I think anyone with a calculator can pretty much figure out that a subsidized “bargain” on a netbook with a monthly data plan is truly lousy deal. However, with the profit margins they get, who can blame them for tryin’? Coming soon, Verizon will be introducing the Gateway LT2016u early next month. It [...]

Gateway wanted to take the plunge into the netbook market. Anyone care to guess the specs….anyone….anyone….Bueller! Well, just in case you need a hint, their new LT2000 is not exactly breaking any new ground: Intel Atom N270 processor 10.1″ LCD display 1 GB RAM 160 GB hard drive 3 cell battery Windows XP 3 USB ports Integrated webcam Multigesture touchpad Cherry Red/Nightsky Black Well, innovation must [...]

The recently announced Gatewway LT3100 was not only spotted, but it was brought home and played with from a local Best Buy store. Turns out that Best Buy has it as the Gateway L3103u, probably some exclusive variant. The specs are along the lines of the mini-notebook, more than a pure netbook. The hard drive is [...]

Gateway has waited to join the netbook party. They are introducing the Gateway LT3100. However, this is not quite a netbook, and more like a first cousin of one. Kind of like an affordable, ultraportable, then a full fledged netbook. Let’s take a look at the specs to see what we’re talking about. AMD Athlon 64 [...]
