I don't think the Your Ware program is a lease at all. You own the machine outright once you've made all of the payments. If you want to turn it in for another machine after two years, it is your option--or you can just keep it. The two years is a minimum. If you want to turn it in after 3, 4 or 5 you can. The turn in value comes out of a blue book value, just like used cars. Of course the longer you hold the machine, the less you are going to get for it from Gateway. Margin are supposed to be higher on the your ware program. They make an average of $200 on the new machine and then they make another $200 on the trade-in deal.
