gateway laptop?

Ive never had a Gateway before but my friend had a Gateway desktop for several years before it died of old age.

just be careful with it. always keep it on a cooling pad even when on your lap. theres laptop desks you can get for that iffen ya want. as laptops are touchy/delicate danged things that are very prone to over heat regardless of what brands they are.

amen to the cooling bad, my old Hp got so hot before that i did go out and buy a two fan cooling pad, diddnt help much still over heated but this laptop seems to stay cool without the cooling pad but im still keeping it under just in case lol

Thats good

hopefully it stays that way.

my friend used to use hers without a cooling pad on her lap,, over time it started to feel hot. to the point that it would burn her legs even with jeans on. the cooling pad cured that but made it a little awkward to use

I always put the case under my laptop. When other people use it and they go to take the laptop away and leave the case I have like a mini panic attack, not sure why.
