Title: I wouldn't advise . . . has recovery issues
Review: I purchased this laptop, and it's all well and good. The issue I have with this laptop is the way the hard drive is partitioned, and the poor recovery disk setup. The recovery disk does not have the bundled software that the laptop comes with, so, if anything happens to the hard drive, and you have to do a full restore, you would most likely lose the programs. In addition, a full restore would NOT restore the device drivers, unfortunately, as I have painfully experienced. I bought two of these, and have had cause to contact gateway for a CD that would be more helpful. Performance-wise though, it is a good system. This is my third Gateway laptop using the same form factor, and the monitor hinge is rather weak, and I have experienced serious cracking with my first one.
