NO, being a Gateway does NOT make it worth MORE!
Not in the real world, no wonder Gateway (once an idustry leader) is going down the tubes Razz

I'm tempted to see if I can get some shipping labels without ordering and then send them some spare (broken) stuff I will otherwise need to pay to get rid of Laughing

8?-/94-5 gateway sold more machines on the corporate level than Dell as a percentage of market cap.
I serviced (NO! EC NOT like that!) thousand of these "cow boxes" most at sub 100 seat clients. (I hated them, but the onsite IT staffs loved the ads.)
at least until the warranty was up. then they dumped them rather the pay for the overpriced parts (if available)
Somewhere it all went wrong (even Ted Wiatt?) has run away now.

I also got a total of $278.... I'm pretty sure I could get double that if I was to sell my complete system....
