Never buy gateway

Internet & Web

I bought a gateway solo 9500 about 1 year ago.
I have sent it in for repairs so many times i lost track.
Now they want me to sent everything power, software and all thing i got when i first got this pos laptop.
So i called them telling the techs that i want my money back before i give you this laptop back.

I am currently using for school. I wasted over 2,100 or more dollars on this pos and now i have a dell worth 2,300 on order. That is 2 full times summers and some part time help to pay for these 2 things. When i bought this gateway i was expecting to last at least 3 years for college.

But NO They told me they would send me a new laptop but instead i got paper work saying they want all stuff i got when got this laptop back.

So i called them and told them how am i suppose to back all my files up i need for school. THe damn tech told me i was suppose to back it up on floppy disks. I have a 20 gig hard drive in this laptop and it would take over 50,000 disks to back up all files i need for college and what not.

I told them i can not send this in right now i have college and i need laptop to do test, homework and what now. The tech told me well i am sorry but that is not my area.

One of the techs put the phone down and started laughing and telling other people she was working with and then she came back and made me say eveything all over again.
SO i got ticked and bought a new laptop from dell.
And that money was going to be used for going on a honeymoon in less then a year. I guess we will have to go somewhere else now thanks to gateway.

Tell you one thing i am telling everyone where i live, work and go not to buy a gateway because they suck
