The desktop computer market has pretty much cooled off with most consumers looking to notebooks and netbooks for their computing needs today. The all in one computer is one of the most popular types of desktops and Gateway has announced a couple new AIO machines. The new AIOs include the Gateway One ZX4951 and ZX6951.
Gateway has announced its latest line of netbooks and the new line uses AMD power. The family is called the LT32 series and all feature 11.6-inch HD resolution screens. The line has many of the same features, but do differ a bit.
Gateway has added a couple new all-in-one desktop computers to its line of AIO units. The two new machines fit into the Gateway One ZX series and include the ZX4300-01e and the ZX6900-01e. The former is an AMD machine while the latter is an Intel rig.
Gateway has been offering gaming desktops for a long time now. Gamers are still one of the few groups of computer users willing to spend lots of money on a desktop. Most other computer users prefer notebooks today. Gateway has changed the FX design with a new chassis and new hardware.
When it comes to the lightest, smallest, and most portable notebooks, they often lack optical drives. This isn’t a problem for some users, but those who often need to access data from a CD or DVD can run into big problems.
I am a fan of netbooks even though it bothers me that they are all pretty much the same. Netbooks offer plenty of power for most mobile needs on the go in a more portable and less expensive package. If you want a netbook and need 3G broadband service too, a subsidized netbook may be the way for you to go.
Looks like Gateway is getting in on the multitouch action like everyone else. Why not? Windows 7 makes it easy. The company has unveiled the One ZX lineup, which will consist of the ZX6800 series and ZX4800 series. Both will ship with Windows 7.
Gateway’s new EC18T tablet laptop is one sexy beast. It’s like the Ferrari of laptops. It boasts an 11.6-inch touchscreen that rotates and folds back onto the keyboard, keeping the whole thing slim and sleek.
In many parts of the world, subsidized notebooks and netbooks have been common for a long time. Here in the U.S. subsidized notebooks have really only started to be offered over the last year. Verizon Wireless has announced the latest addition to its notebook line, the Gateway LT2016u.
Netbooks are still selling very well despite the fact that sales of traditional notebooks are at some of the lowest levels in years. Sales of netbooks are exploding, particularly in the more undeveloped areas of the world.
As back to school gets closer, we will see more and more new notebooks and netbooks launched by computer makers. The back to school shopping season is one of the best times of the year for many computer makers so they load up with new product offerings.
