Intel Atom Processor: Your PC's Perfect Internet Companion

Take the Internet to more places with the long battery life and flexibility of a compact, lightweight netbook powered by the incredibly small, amazingly smart Intel Atom processor. It features a design structure that packs in 47 million transistors into a single chip sized at just 22mm (0.87 inches), and it uses just 2.5 watts of power--less than 1/10 of the 35 watts used by an Intel Core 2 Duo processor--for excellent battery management. This 1.6 GHz Atom N270 processor also includes a power-optimized front side bus of 533 MHz for faster data transfer on demanding mobile applications and a 512 KB L2 cache (which temporarily stores data).

5 out of 5 stars gateway 10'' notebook   May 2, 2010
Martha Hill (Oxford, MS)
I really like my new notebook.It is small and doesn't take a lot of space. The price was very affordable and I recommend anyone to buy electronics from Amazon.com


5 out of 5 stars Great Computer!   April 24, 2010
R. Bombonato (Florida United States)
So far this computer has been great, super fast start-up and great battery lfe, fast to surf online. Only downside so far is that I can not change the background picture (maybe to save memory).


5 out of 5 stars Good product, Great price!   April 21, 2010
John Abdel-jabbar (Colorado, USA)
Exactly what I was looking for. This is a small laptop, not full size laptop. The only complaint I have is that the MS OS is Windows 7 (entry level) edition. This means that it's stripped down of features that most of us need. You may have to pay additional money to upgrade the OS to a version of the OS that meets your needs.

Pretty good computer for the most part. I'm basically your standard MS Office and web user and I'm pretty happy with its function. Especially considering its size and price. BIGGEST COMPLAINT(S): only has 206GB hard-drive free (states it is 250GB).. that should be illegal!!!! Also, couldn't get the anti-virus offer stop popping up no matter what I did.. called customer service, got reps in India who could barely speak English only to be told it is a "software" issue and only "hardware" issues are covered by the warranty, and then tried to sell me something like $30 for the service call. Are you friggin' kidding me?! That should also be illegal. Who's regulating these companies?!


5 out of 5 stars Great little netbook for the price.   March 11, 2010
M. Jacks (Atlanta, GA USA)
I searched for a netbook for about a week and found that I could get a Toshiba netbook at Best Buy for about the same price that had a slightly faster processor but a smaller hard drive. I decided to go with the Gateway because of the 250 GB hard drive instead of the 120 GB. The slight increase in processor speed on the Toshiba just could not offset the Gateways price of $280 out the door with the larger hard drive. I upgraded the memory to the 2 GB max( Crucial 2GB 256Mx64PC2-5300 CT25664AC667 DDR2 200-Pin SODIMM Laptop Memory )which really makes a difference only for downloading files or watching video. The battery life seems to be about what is advertised, or maybe slightly better. I removed Norton's and installed freeware for anti-virus and spyware and will probably remove the Microsoft Office suite because I don't want to pay $130 for it. For as little as I expect to use it I don't think that it is worth it on this netbook. I really only expect to use it for traveling which will consist of web use and email, and maybe video chat occasionally. It is built very solidly, and has great styling. As another reviewer stated, the battery does add about an inch to the depth over other netbooks, but this is only an issue for finding a sleeve to carry it in to protect it. I found a sleeve at Wal-Mart (also here at amazon.com) by Targus( Targus 10.2-Inch Slipskin-Peel Netbook Case )that looks great and fits perfectly. It comes in burgundy colored trim that matches exactly. It is slightly more here at amazon.com unless you get the blue trimmed one, which is about half the price as Wal-Mart. If you are looking for a full time computer, a netbook is not for you, but if you want mobility at a great price then I highly recommend this Gateway.
