Yeah, but GE isn't making it's numbers on their refrigerators. The thing about these Gateways that is nice is the Support but I don't need that. I think I spent around $4,000 for a Solo Notebook last year and whatever for this. Meanwhile, my son bought a few machines mail order that he had to put minor assembly time into, they never go down, they are 3 times as powerful and he spent roughly $647 for each plus $15 for a keyboard, $5 for a mouse, and less than a hundred for each monitor. Neither Gateway even has a speaker so I have to rely on Visual Alerts. I have the Mac set up for several alerts just so I have something audible. I tend to think they are sort of poorly manufactured. The Notebook, after a few months, cannot even shut down properly. A real pleasant experience in an airport. Once, I was halfway to Fort Lauderdale, pulling it out to catch up on work only to find I was running out of battery power because the machine was on during the entire trip. Anyway, enough of that. The Relative Strength of the machine is in a column of "O"s so it does not merit attention.
