I actually bought this because of my recent problems with Dell system quality, order fulfillment and customer service. I found good reviews about this system on cnet, so I gave it a try. It sets up easily, is super fast and super quiet. My husband loves it. You have to set up your own recovery disks. It takes four dvd's for system default backup image and drivers and one cdr for recovery boot disk. The chicklet keyboard is a little odd, so my husband kept his old keyboard. I recommend this system for anyone who wants a fast, easy system, that doesn't have to customize an order.

I was surprised how quiet this computer is . . what a bonus that is. It is very fast as well. I have experimented with AMD microprocessors, but it is best to pay a bit more and get the Intel model instead. I haven't had a moment of trouble with this PC, so can't anything about customer support. My guess is that it is mediocre. I have a two year warranty on it because I put it on a special Platinum credit card. Hopefully will never have to use it.My model Gateway DX4840-15 came with 8gb memory. It also has a wireless LAN card included, which I didn't think was very useful on a desktop model. Would have preferred a blu-ray drive instead.In terms of "bloatware", there is very little of it. I liked the free Norton Anti-virus trial, and the DVD Player PowerDVD 9 really improved the display of my videos.Well done!

I needed to replace a 3 year old office desktop with a noisy fan (which I will repair when the transfer is complete.) The Gateway SX2850-33 got a great review from CNET but it seemed cramped, so I looked further, and this model met my needs. (The -11e model was about $100 cheaper but had an i3 processor). Lots of memory (6GB) and disk space (1TB), and an i5 processor with Windows 7 64 bit. There are similar models from Dell and elsewhere in this price range, but the Gateway has nice touches (10 USB ports for example). I ordered on a Saturday and it was delivered on Monday afternoon (via Amazon 2 days service, what a treat). No problems out of the box, and quiet (after all the high pitched noises of the old machine). I deleted the additional programs supplied (Norton, Office trial) - the bloat was not too bad. I next used Windows 7 EASY TRANSFER to move over 250 Gb of files on the network from my old machine - it ran overnight. Then I had to reinstall my favorite programs which took another day (such as Skype, Picasa, Office 2010, Chrome, AVAST! free virus protection). In two days I had a working machine and took the old one off line (but have it handy in case I missed something) with the only minor irritation of having to rebuild all my history files and cookies e.g. email name recognition; but that is just part of the process. It's work. I'll probably install a second DVD writer in a few months for disk-to-disk copying.This model appears significantly faster than the older machine, so I am very pleased with the purchase and exercise.
