Unbelievable Computer Value for under $240 Jun 22, 2010

I am so impressed with this little Gateway Netbook. I had no trouble registering my name as a user without a password (see previous review). Immediately, it recognized my wireless network and asked my if I wanted to join it. All I had to do was enter my Encryption Code and I was online! I also bought the Anytime 7 Upgrade and loaded it with ease. It did take about an hour (instead of 10 minutes) because there were 40 new upgrades to the Home Edition to download. It proceeded without difficulty and restarted itself.
I had no trouble getting used to the slightly smaller keyboard and the display is incredibly bright with excellent resolution. To save battery, the system dims the display if unused for a couple of minutes, but re-brightens as soon as you touch a key or the keypad. It also quickly goes to "sleep" to save battery power, but comes back after touching a key and clicking on your user name.
I also bought a wireless Logitech mouse to go with it. The transmitter is very tiny and fits into the USB 2.0 port of which there are three. Two more are left over for flash drives or whatever such as a CD/DVD drive.
The whole unit with the 3 cell battery is incredibly lightweight at only 2.6 lbs. and feels like a feather in your hand. I am looking forward to learning more about Windows 7 and surfing the net with this tiny netbook!

PLEASE READ Sep 20, 2010

This is a decent laptop. I have ALWAYS had gateway laptops and love them, but have never had a netbook. Bought this and liked it but be aware you CANNOT customize your desktop background on this as it has windows 7 starter. You can put a small pic (factory or one of your own) in the center using the gadget but that is it.
Also, I am not sure if this is a "netbook" thing but my screen cracked for no reason, internally....I am typing on this laptop right now and the top left corner of my screen is white and black because it cracked inside. I didn't drop it, hit it...anything. I have never had this problem. I am not sure if it is because of this model or it's common in netbooks. But ALSO BE ADVISED the warranty on this computer DOES NOT cover any screen issues...so this problem was not covered and it would cost $100.00 + shipping to fix. (called gateway)

Great little netbook. Easy to use. Have not used the battery yet so I can't judge its life span.
