Gateway Budget Gaming Desktop Gets 45nm Quad-Core Refresh
It's been a few months since CES, so Gateway is rightly updating its FX budget gaming desktops with some fresher chips. Most notably, the FX7026 (more budget-y) and FX541 (more performance-y) are picking up Intel's mid-range Q9300 Core 2 Quad processor (which beat down AMD's top of the line Phenom X4 9850 quad in benchmarks). They both start at a little over a grand, so not bad deals—check the release for more details. More »

Gateway "Spots" Contest Ends, One Tattooed Jackass Reigns Supreme
Gateway's Show Us Your Spots contest is at an end, and the winner is picked: some kid named Matt, who permanently brands himself a Gateway fanatic, all to win the system and spite his jerk friend Billy who calls him a Noob all the time. (Guess it worked.) Check out the runners-up, and our impressions of their noble but misguided attempts: More »

Do suits enjoy having a good time? We'd think so, although we've never actually seen physical evidence of this, which is why BlackBerry's Remote Stereo Gateway might be just the thing for them to loosen up those ties a little bit. The Gateway works like so: connect your phone via Bluetooth, connect your speakers into the output jack, start playing music. No hint as to the price or release date in the FCC docs (because they're FCC docs). [FCC via Engadget]

Gateway P-Series FX Edition P-171XL, P-171S and P-171X Gaming Notebooks Roll With 512MB NVIDIA GeForce 8800M GTS Graphics, HDMI and eSATA Ports
The Skinny: Not really known for their gaming wares, Gateway's FX Edition notebooks bring the fire with NVIDIA GeForce 8800M GTS graphics cards, HDMI out and eSATA ports, 17-inch WUXGA screen (1920x1200) displays, and HD DVD drive options. The top of the line P-171XL rocks a Core 2 Extreme X7900 proc, 3 gigs of RAM and dual 200GB HDs for $3k, which isn't bad on the price front. The Catch: The battery life in a phrase? It sucks balls.

Gateway FX7020 and FX540 Budget Gaming Desktops Hold Their Own
The Blurb: The FX7020 is a budget gamer desktop, coming in right around a grand with quad-core AMD Phenom setup, a 512MB NVIDIA 8800GT graphics card (which actually stacks up well to the at least doubly expensive 8800GTXs) and 3GB of RAM. The FX540 is their flagship w/ an SLi-ready motherboard, which explains the massive range for the sucker: $999 up to almost 4 grand, depending on whether you go with the GTs or GTXs and how many.. The Burn: The case is friggin' mugly. More »

Dell XPS One, Gateway One and Apple iMac Get Friendly
The All-In-One is in full effect this year, with some very hot models: the Gateway One, the Dell XPS One and Apple's new iMac. While it's nice to pick favorites and all, the fact is, each of these are better than most computers out there, and each has particular design traits that stand out. I've given awards in different categories at the end of this piece, but in the meantime, this is really a walk through of different design choices. If it seems to lean heavily on the Dell XPS One, that's because it's newer, and we've already spent more time on the Apple and the Gateway. So take a leisurely stroll through all of this stuff, compare and contrast, and at the end, hell, call your own winner.

GE's Cell Fusion Series Pairs Your Home Phone to Your Cellphone
GE's upcoming Cell Fusion series of phones uses Bluetooth technology to pair your cellphone to your home phone so that you don't spend minutes looking for you tiny clamshell or slider while its ringing. GE has dubbed the first phone in the Cell Fusion series, the "No Jack" phone, and is geared toward "cord cutters," or those who no longer have a landline. The No Jack phone features a Bluetooth receiver that can pair with up to two cell phones so that you can make and receive calls on a standard sized cordless phone. The No Jack phone will be released in April 2008 in two models, 28127FE1, which just has one handset and costs $80, and the 28127FE2, which ships with a pair of handsets for $100. More »

displays
After Gateway released their 30-inch, 1600p XHD3000 display, they're hoping to springboard the positive press into their entire line of LCDs, including their new 24-inch ($499) and 22-inch ($350) models. Both have impressive monitor specs, double as HD TVs (1080p and 720p, respectively) and feature image enhancement through a Faroudja video processing chipset. Obviously neither display is rocking 1600p upscaling, but we're guessing these models show some pretty pictures nonetheless. Besides, their slew of inputs including HDMI mean we might actually utilize their extended video functionality. Hit the jump for the full stat smattering.

Frankenreview - Gateway XHD3000
Last week Wilson Rothman took a look at the new Gateway XHD3000 monitor. You may know it better as the 30-inch, 1600p beast display that has scared the collective crap out of Dell, Apple, and every other competitor on the market. For the full consensus, hit the jump for the Frankenreview: every review that matters in one place (or at least those from Wired, ExtremeTech and PCWorld).

one screen to rule them all
Gateway XHD3000 Extreme HD 30-Incher Reviewed (Verdict: Really Ties The Room Together)
When I first heard about Gateway's XHD3000 Extreme HD 30-inch monitor, I actually thought, "Here is the one screen to rule them all." You guys were excited when we told you about it a week ago, but you wanted to know more about how it holds up. It has a few flaws, sure, but given the fact that it has a built-in HQV upscaler and inputs for all of your video sources, it is uniquely advantageous in the gadget-cluttered home.More »

one screen to rule them all
Today at the Gateway One press event, Gateway quietly revealed a potentially more exciting product, the 30-inch ExtremeHD 1600 monitor. It could very well be the only screen you ever need, because it takes everything from a VCR to a high-end gaming PC and upscales it all with HQV Realta technology to display on its 2560x1600 screen, so no special video card is required. (Gateway calls it 1600p.) Its got six different types of video inputs that you can use simultaneously: VGA, HDMI, DVI, component video, composite video and S-Video. And it can manage picture-in-picture—in high-def. Due out October 7 for somewhere in the range of $1,700, the monitor also acts as a 6-port USB hub. And yeah, in case you were wondering, it's a little warm to the touch.

Normally I don't get this jazzed about desktop PCs, but the Gateway One is special. From the sleek yet substantial design to the quiet, powerful core, it's a real statement, especially from the cow-pocked South Dakota underdog.
