Gateway laptop Review

Gateway laptops are just more trouble than they are worth. Not only do I own one, but I know other people who also own them. At first they seem very nice, easy to use, and reliable. But I had mine for about 6 months and it broke down on me. The power jack went out in it and it would no longer recognize that it was plug in so no longer charge. Every one that I talk to has also had this very same problem. I even went out to get mine repaired and had a new jack put inside of it. It worked for another 4 months and did the same thing. It will no longer charge without having to arrange the cord is strange ways. It is only a matter of time before it goes out on me completly. I'm refusing to spend money on fixing the same problem again, and refusing to purchase another Gateway laptop. I thought they would be nice to have and at a good price. Boy was I completly wrong about that. My advise to anyone is to just not purchase one and find a better brand.
