    Gateway MT6840 Laptop Computer

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jan 9, 2008 | 1 out of 1 found this Gateway MT 6840 review helpful

    Pros: GREAT price - Great looks - solid laptop

    Cons: Vista seems a little strange at first

    Just got it today and I've been playing all afternoon and evening with it. Tigerdirect had offered these before Christmas and had sold out before I decided to order one. They came back on sale once again and I jumped to buy one. Delivery was quic...ker than I had expected. UPS tracking told me it would be delivered by the end of the week. The computer was well packaged and complete with a recovery CD and warranty as well as a couple of set up manuals. It is sold as refurbished - but mine is NEW It is a very handsome laptop that I will not be ashamed to show my friends. Actually, one of my friends called Tiger today and ordered one for himself. Another friend in Europe wants one too. Read more Less

    Blocker - looked good from a block away

    By William  Sep 22, 2009

    Pros: Cheap, reasonably featured

    Cons: Power supply issues

    The DC power jack broke right at a year of service. Issues with the jack likely shortened the life of the battery which now shuts down after about 10-15 minutes of use.Gateway support offers no support, just pitching the sale of a new motherboard and... expensive repair services that surpass the cost of a new laptop.If a new Gateway MT 6840 will break in a year, isn't that likely to occur on the replacement board?Lesson learned - stop buying Gateways. The upside to the MT-6840 was that it came out just when Vista did, so the trouble in reverting to XP and being able to locate all of the XP drivers for the MT 6840 was minimal.Any new Win powered laptop is going to have Vista, with no XP drivers in sight. Looks like my new laptop is going to have to be a Mac. I prefer Win XP PCs - but what can you do.Buy a Gateway, and you'll buy twice. Read more Less
