Very nice computer. 4GB of hard drive; 320GB HDD and a 15.4 monitor. Monitor is large enough, has an excellent picture and very fast promptage. We love this computer and would highly recommend it to others. Also, when purchasing with hsn you receive additional software which would cost more if purchased at local retail.

Well, this is the first laptop from HSN for me and first gateway product. I have had this for a couple of weeks and so far haven't had any problems. Seems to run a little hot at times but hasn't shut down for no reason or anything like that so far. Am a little disappointed that the memory advertised is not the complete memory on product.

First computer I HAVE bought from HSN. THIS COMPUTER JUST SHUT OFF FOR NO REASON. I HAVE A OLDER GATEWAY I BOUGHT 8 YEARS AGO FROM GATEWAY AT ONE OF THEIR STORES. I WAS VERY DISAPPOINTED IN THE PROCESS OF WHICH I HAD TO GET ANOTHER REPLACEMENT. SO FAR I HAVE BEEN WITHOUT A COMPUTER FOR 3 WEEKS SINCE I FIRST PURCHASED IT. HOPE THE NEW COMPUTER WILL BE BETTER THAN THE FIRST. wILL LET YOU KNOW WHAT I THINK OF THE SECOND COMPUTER AFTER I HAVE HAD IT FOR A FEW WEEKS.

i RECEIVED THIS TWO WEEKS AGO AND WAS DISAPPOINTED THAT I BOUGHT THIS BECAUSE GATEWAY JOE SAID THAT THE SUPPORT DESK WAS FROM USA BUT ALL I GET IS INDIA. I HAVE BEEN ON THE INTERNET A COUPLE OF TIMES BUT MOST OF THE TIME I COULD NOT GET ON. I HAVE SPENT HOURS TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM. DO NOT ADVERTISE SOMETHING THAT IS NOT AND MAKE A BETTER LAPTOP. I HAVE A GATEWAY DESK TOP FOR NINE YEARS NO PROBLEMS.I DO NOT WANT TO SPEND HOURS WITH A HELPDESK THAT CANNOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM.

Laptop arrived with no paperwork from HSN, no manual or warranty information. Keeps blacking out, when I called Gateway, you get a run around. HSN now has to request a return label from Gateway which may take up to 21 days to receive which means I may have to pay a second month's payment for a computer that does not work and that has to be returned. I am very disapointed.

I have had the computer for about 2 weeks. The computer is good, no big problems but somtimes shuts down without warning. My biggest dissapointment is it is advertised as 320 GB HD. When checked it says 250 GB remaining of 284 GB. I am disapointed that HSN allowed the misrepresentation.

I'm very happy with the Gateway M-1631U laptop computer, but HSN's price is way too high. I'm sorry I didn't shop for a better price elsewhere. I could have saved over $200.00 and received free shipping.

I bought the Acer Aspire,Too slow and my webcam wouldn't open, they did recovery which erased all my hard work on settings it still didn't work,So I bought the Gateway,love the computer appearance, speed and performance, Keeps blacking out. Wish I could keep it, blacking out not good. Starting Summer on-line classes will be in Florida on vacation hoped to be on the beach doing work and classes. Won't happen now because I have to send them both back to HSN. Makes me sooo disappointed with HSN.

I just received this laptop this week and all I can say is "WOW". I bought this during Colleen Lopez's host pick day. This is the best laptop ever. Very easy to use and it is fast.
I'm very happy that I purchased this.
