A few weeks ago I acquired a Gateway Solo 2550 Notebook computer principally for my work as an Everest salesman. The company supplied the specialist software - which is brilliant - but I was wary of such a small lightweight machine for regular use.
However, it is simply WONDERFUL! I use it for a work, personal use and play several hours every day, and the keyboard and display are SUPERB! The touch pad mouse took a bit of getting used to - but only a bit - and I'm now just as happy with it as a standard mouse.
If you've been conditioned to expect notebooks to be inferior to desktops - don't believe it. The extra versatility makes it absolutely invaluable - for my wife and family as well, when they can get their hands on it!
