Step Out in Style: Gateway’s Colorful Notebooks Make a Fashion Statement

Irvine, CA - Gateway today gives two of its most popular consumer notebook lines - the Gateway M-Series 
(15.4-inch display) and T-Series (14.1-inch display) - a fresh look with new vibrant colors and designs. 

The Gateway M-Series, which was previously available in Garnet Red and Pacific Blue, is now available in rich 
Merlot and luminous Silver. Both the M-Series and T-Series will be available in a new design called Arctic Bloom - 
delicate wildflowers on a background of icy turquoise blue. 

"Our customers responded so well to the jewel-toned colors we introduced last fall that we’re expanding the 
line to offer customers even more choices in a PC that reflects their individuality and tastes," said Todd Titera, 
Gateway senior manager, notebook PCs. "These new colors - Merlot, Silver and especially Arctic Bloom - 
have their own unique personality to please the fashion conscious and style-minded."

Gateway used its new InFuse process to inject the color and designs into the notebooks, giving them a striking, 
rich metallic finish. The color and graphics are then sealed in with a smooth, lustrous finish that has a high-
quality appearance. 

Further benefiting the customer, notebooks purchased with the new colors will not be subject to a price premium 
or longer sales lead time, as is typical of many systems with unique designs. 

These colors appear even more impressive and vibrant when combined with the M-Series and T-Series’ eye-
catching industrial design. In addition to the high-gloss InFuse finish, the notebooks feature treatments such 
as a unique aluminum keyboard surround surface, slimming metal profiling and deluxe trims. 

The high-style look and feel is a perfect complement to the performance and features in the notebook lines. 
These systems boast fast Intel processors, ample memory and vast hard drive storage. Above each notebook’s 
keyboard is a brushed-metal multimedia control panel, featuring smooth-cut keys providing convenient access
to frequently-used audio and video functions such as play, stop, fast-forward and rewind. Volume can be 
controlled with a touch-sensitive slide. The large widescreen designs (15.4-inch on M-Series, 14.1-inch on T-
series) are great for viewing DVD movies and browsing the Internet. 

The notebook models come with a range of technology for staying connected, including Wi-fi wireless and a 
standard integrated web-cam for video conferencing and video emails. Select models come with integrated 
Bluetooth technology, so customers can wirelessly connect to peripherals such as a printer, mobile phone, 
keyboard and mouse. 

Sporting the latest technology, the notebooks offer high-definition video and audio. An HDMI interface is 
available on select models and lets consumers connect their notebook to a display device (TV, monitor) to 
view applications, games, digital media content, as well as high-definition video and audio through a single 
connection. Several models feature an integrated fingerprint reader, which can be used for user authentication, 
data protection and as a password-bank. 

Each of the models comes with Genuine Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium and MS Works 9.0. 

Sales, Pricing and Availability 

The Gateway M-Series line will be available direct from Gateway as well as through select retailers nationwide. 

Gateway will sell the M-Series in the new M-151 configurations to customers through its direct channels of

Gateway Introduces Powerful New FX Series Desktops

Las Vegas, NV & Irvine, CA - Giving gamers a reason to type “w00t,” Gateway today unveiled two new powerful 
FX Series desktops designed for extreme gaming and other high-performance, graphic-intensive multimedia 
applications. Gateway’s new powerful FX Series desktops provide the raw power necessary for gamers to 
dominate the latest games and blaze through multi-threaded programs with unparalleled speed. (See additional 
announcement from Gateway today regarding its new P-Series FX Edition notebooks.) 

The FX7020 is a value-based gaming power house costing close to $1,000 less than comparable systems. The 
high-performance FX540 brings several new leading technologies to the FX line, including NVIDIA SLI 
technology for powerful, elegant and super-rich graphics for games and other graphics-intensive applications. 

Featuring AMD quad-core power and DirectX® 10 graphics, the Gateway FX7020 is powerful enough to handle 
just about any graphic-intensive task. With a compelling price point of just $1,099, it costs well below a 
comparable $2,000 system. With the introduction of a value-based desktop in its flagship FX computer line, 
Gateway brings high-performance gaming within reach of most mainstream consumers. 

The Gateway FX540 Series is the next generation of Gateway’s flagship no-compromise desktop line. Ideal for 
extreme gaming, digital content creation and advanced multitasking, it is designed for enthusiasts who want the 
latest in cutting-edge technology but don’t want to spend a fortune. 

"No matter what your budget or skill level is, Gateway’s FX Series desktops include a range of choices that are 
both powerful and affordable," said Glenn Jystad, Senior Manager, Desktop Products, Gateway. "The FX line 
is designed for gaming, as well as digital photography and video editing, so customers know that no matter 
which system they ultimately choose in the line, it will be powerful enough to handle a wide variety of multimedia 
applications."

The Gateway FX7020 Brings Gaming to the Masses 

Featuring quad core power, high-end graphics, a compelling price point and widespread availability through the 
retail channel, the FX7020 takes the guess-work out of purchasing a gaming PC. 

"The Gateway FX7020 is certainly designed for those who take their gaming and content creation seriously," 
said Jystad. "But given its low price, it also allows a wider range of people to experience the thrill of modern PC 
gaming or to get involved with advanced photo, video and music applications."

Challenging the specs and performance of systems costing almost twice as much, the FX7020 features the most 
advanced AMD quad-core power and NVIDIA® GeForce® 8800GT graphics. The AMD Phenom™ Processor 
blazes through games and other multi-threaded programs with remarkable speed, while the NVIDIA® 8800GT 
graphics solution features 112 stream processors and ultra-fast frame rates to play the hottest DirectX®10 
games with 512MB video memory in a single card. Combined with 3GB of memory, the FX7020 delivers incredible 
overall system speed, deftly handling multiple tasks, delivering rich demanding content and speedily running all 
applications. 

Featuring a 400 watt power supply, the FX7020 can support additional high-performance hardware and future 
expansion requirements. 

Rounding out its raw processing power is a combo standard definition (NTSC)/high definition (ATSC) TV Tuner 
with a Media Center remote control, so customers can watch and record live television. Rich 8-channel, 7.1 
high-definition audio delivers a premium sound experience for viewing the latest games, online entertainment 
and DVD movies. 

Customers with large photo and music libraries will appreciate the integrated Labelflash™ technology(1), which 
makes burning personalized discs quick and easy. Using the same laser that burns content onto discs, 
Labelflash™ can also burn unique, custom made labels directly onto DVDs and CDs. These high-resolution, 
transparent and scratch-resistant images do not require an external printer or paper labels. 

The FX7020 boasts a slick, jet-black design with metallic keyboard, mouse and system accents and copper 
LED status lights.

The new desktops come with giant hard drives up to 500GB and most models offer multi-format, dual-layer 
drives with LabelFlash technology(1) for burning personalized images directly on disks. A Portable Media Drive 
Bay on the front of the chassis houses an optional drive and is available at select retailers for reliable back-up, 
storage and transporting large amounts of data. A USB cable enables the Portable Media Drive to be

customers is 100-percent based in North America. Customers are assured their calls are handled by knowledgeable, 
experienced, well-trained and dedicated support agents close to home(5).

and get the most out of Vista, Gateway recommends Answers by Gateway, which provides 24/7 telephone 
support for assistance with questions that go far beyond the system’s standard limited warranty. For instance, 
Gateway’s experts can help resolve most “how-to” questions about setting up e-mail or a home network, 
connecting a printer or transferring a home movie. They can also provide help with non-Gateway technology 
products, assisting with questions related to software, wireless networks, televisions, printers and digital cameras 
from most major manufacturers. This ensures Gateway customers are getting the most out of their Gateway PC 
and that their system works seamlessly with all of their consumer electronic equipment. 

Additional service and support options are also available. Gateway’s commitment to quality and reliability is 
evident in its award-winning line of PCs as well as in its exceptional service and support programs. The company’s 
extensive online support center helps customers maximize their PC investment; it gives them easy access to 
customer support representatives and information on important issues such as warranties, technical issues and 
upgrading.

Gateway Announces Plans to Acquire Packard Bell B.V.

Irvine, CA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Gateway, Inc. (NYSE:GTW) today announced that it has delivered a binding 
offer to acquire all of the shares of PB Holding Company S.à.r.l. from Lap Shun (John) Hui and Clifford Holdings 
Limited, an entity controlled by Hui. Hui currently owns a 75 percent interest in PB Holding, the parent company 
of Packard Bell B.V., a leading European PC vendor based in Paris. 

Under the terms of the binding offer delivered by Gateway to Hui and Clifford dated October 4, 2007, the parties 
have agreed to work together in consultation with the Works Councils in France and the Netherlands and to 
secure antitrust and other regulatory approvals required for the signing and closing of the transaction. Hui and 
Clifford have also agreed to exclusivity arrangements and to exercise certain drag-along rights relating to the 
remaining outstanding shares of PB Holding. 

Acer Inc. has agreed to fund Gateway’s acquisition of PB Holding and Packard Bell in connection with the 
planned merger between Acer and Gateway announced on Aug. 27, 2007. 

Gateway had previously announced that it would exercise its right of first refusal to acquire Hui’s indirect 
interest in Packard Bell. Gateway acquired the right of first refusal as part of a June 2006 agreement with Hui 
that waived certain non-compete arrangements in connection with his purchase of Packard Bell. Hui sold the 
privately-held eMachines, Inc. to Gateway in March 2004. 

This transaction is subject to regulatory approvals and is anticipated to close sometime in the fourth quarter of 
2007 or the first quarter of 2008.

Gateway to Sell Professional Business Segment to MPC Corporation

Irvine, Calif., Sept. 5 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Gateway, Inc. (NYSE: GTW) today announced that it has 
signed a definitive agreement to sell its Professional business segment, including the company's Nashville-based 
configuration center, to MPC Corporation (AMEX: MPZ). The transaction, valued at approximately $90 million 
based on MPC's closing price on Sept. 4, 2007, is subject to regulatory approval and is anticipated to close early 
in the fourth quarter.

"Gateway is widely recognized as a leading consumer brand and this enables us to concentrate our efforts on 
our worldwide consumer channels," said Ed Coleman, Gateway's CEO. "While our performance in the highly 
competitive Professional segment has improved, we believe a more focused approach on the largest segment 
of our business is in the best interests of investors and consumers alike."

With double digit-share of the U.S. consumer PC market, and an even stronger share of the retail channel, 
Gateway embarked on a consumer focused strategy early this year. The sale of its Professional business will 
simplify the existing business model and enable greater emphasis on growing the company's overall consumer 
business, both in the U.S. and internationally.

"This is yet another step in maximizing the importance of Gateway's powerful foundation as a consumer brand," 
continued Coleman. "Coupled with continued product innovation and a strong presence in retail and direct 
channels, this enables us to further drive a strategy that sharpens our focus, not only in the U.S. but abroad as well."

Gateway's Professional business targets businesses, government agencies and educational institutions. Once 
the deal closes, a significant portion of Gateway's Professional employees will join MPC and continue to work 
out of the North Sioux City, SD facility. MPC will assume Gateway's ownership in its final assembly facility (GCC) 
located in Nashville, Tenn., and will take full responsibility for this facility, including the assembly of Gateway 
Professional products produced there. MPC will also acquire the portion of Gateway's Consumer Direct unit that
targets businesses with less than 100 employees.

The combination of Gateway Professional and MPC will greatly benefit existing Professional employees and 
customers. In joining with MPC, Gateway Professional will become part of a business that is dedicated to the 
unique and specialized requirements of professional customers. For these customers, Gateway's portfolio of 
award-winning Professional products will be augmented by MPC's products and services. MPC will continue to 
offer Gateway Professional products to ensure product stability for Professional customers, however, the product 
branding will be migrated from the Gateway brand to the MPC brand within a year.

"We believe that the customers of MPC and Gateway's Professional business will benefit greatly from this 
combination," said John P. Yeros, Chairman and CEO of MPC Corporation. "The new company will be totally 
focused on the markets of government, education, and small-and-medium business, and will develop products 
and services to meet the specific needs of these customers."

As part of the transaction, MPC will assume responsibility for all operations and warranty support associated with 
Gateway's Professional business, valued at approximately $60 million. In addition, Gateway will invest 
approximately $10 million in MPC in the form of a note issuance tied to excess inventory at the GCC. Gateway 
will receive a 19.9% equity stake in MPC Corporation at the close of the transaction. As part of the transaction, 
Gateway will take an impairment charge of approximately $16 million predominantly related to IT assets associated 
with the Professional business. The final numbers will be determined upon the close of this transaction.

Gateway's Professional business generated $75 million in gross margin dollars over the past four quarters 
(Q3 2006 -- Q2 2007). As a result of the sale of its Professional business, assuming it closes, Gateway expects 
that it will be able to streamline its total SG&A by $130 million to $150 million annually, following a transition period 
and its attendant costs.

"On behalf of the Gateway Board and management team, I'd like to thank our Professional employees for their 
hard work and commitment over the years," said Coleman. "I'd also like to thank our Professional customers for 
their loyalty to Gateway, and believe that the combination of Gateway Professional and MPC will result in a highly-
focused organization that can better compete and thrive in this competitive segment."

Gateway Notebooks Are Number One in Customer Satisfaction Poll for Third Consecutive Quarter

Irvine, Calif., Aug. 29 - Gateway, Inc. today announced that it has earned the top spot in Technology Business 
Research's (TBR) Corporate IT Buying Behavior and Customer Satisfaction Study for Corporate Notebooks in 
the second quarter of 2007. This is the third consecutive quarter that Gateway has occupied TBR's top spot for 
notebooks.

For the past three reporting periods, the company was also ranked number one in customer satisfaction for its 
corporate desktops. Leading customer satisfaction scores in TBR's studies for both corporate notebooks and 
desktops show that Gateway's investment in purely North American technical support for U.S. customers is being 
rewarded. According to the recent TBR report, it is the quality of Gateway's customer relationships that largely 
contributed to its status.

Gateway's mean satisfaction positions continue to set new records. In spite of industry-wide shortages, Gateway 
rated significantly higher than the industry average in replacement parts availability and ease of doing business. 
Customer loyalty improved substantially and scores for phone support, notebook value, delivery and repair time 
remained stable.

"Customer care is a top priority at Gateway," said Ed Coleman, Gateway chief executive officer. "We're very 
pleased that customers continue to appreciate our high standards for quality and service. It is our goal to 
continually exceed our customer's expectations with progressive process improvements designed to deliver 
high quality products in a timely, professional manner."

"Of all players, Gateway's performance has improved most significantly and its momentum continues to build," 
said Julie Perron, Technology Business Research manager of primary research. "Gateway has established an 
excellent reputation for customer service, a particularly notable achievement considering its corporate customers 
have the industry's highest expectations."

Form and Function Blend Beautifully in Distinctive Gateway Notebooks for Consumers

Two new notebook lines pair elegant style with leading-edge features and options - HDMI, web cam, fingerprint 
reader, ATI graphics and 1080p capable display
 
IRVINE, Calif., July 12 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Gateway today announces the Gateway® M-Series and 
Gateway® T-Series notebook PCs, two new best-in- class consumer notebooks that are a fusion of the latest 
leading-edge technologies, multimedia functionality and a brand-new eye-catching industrial design available in 
several colors.

The new Gateway M-Series and Gateway T-Series notebooks will be available via Gateway's direct sales 
channels of phone and web as well as at national electronics and technology retailers.

The new notebooks sport many advanced standard features that dramatically improve how customers will use 
them for on-the-go entertainment, information, digital media hobbies and productivity applications. The new PCs 
feature a dedicated precision-touch multimedia control panel with smooth-cut keys in the keyboard surround that 
provide one-touch access to digital media content. The notebooks also include an integrated web cam for 
staying in touch and creating video emails and blogs.

Several standard and optional features available on notebooks purchased through Gateway's direct channel build 
on the notebooks' vast capabilities, such as 1080p-capable display, an integrated fingerprint reader and a High 
Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) for digital video and audio out.

Complementing these advanced features, the two new Gateway notebook lines feature consumer-oriented 
industrial designs in sleek and slim form factors with distinguishing trims and treatments. The striking design of 
the new notebooks is galvanized with a distinctive graduated sphere Ridgeview™ pattern on the notebook's lid 
and palmrest over a base of Crimson Red, Pacific Blue or Slate Grey. These new designs are the first in the 
company's roll-out of unique patterns, colors and designs for the two new notebook lines.

"The Gateway M-Series and T-Series deliver what consumers want in their notebooks - exceptional style and 
the latest technology," said Todd Titera, senior manager, consumer products. "And although the elegant design 
of the notebooks conveys an exclusivity typically only available at a price premium, Gateway has designed these 
systems to meet the needs and budgets of a range of consumers. Anyone who wants to be envied will choose 
the notebooks for their first-class design and leading-edge performance and capabilities, while those on a more 
limited budget will be surprised that they can get such a stylish notebook with popular features."

While the notebooks share many capabilities and features, they differ in size to meet the needs of a range of 
mobile customers. The notebooks each boast a sleek and slim form factor that is easy and comfortable to 
transport. The Gateway M-Series has a 15.4-inch widescreen display, ideal for customers who want enhanced 
viewing options, while the Gateway T-Series has a 14.1-inch widescreen display for those looking for a great 
blend of multimedia and optimized mobility.

Digital Media Features for Entertainment, Enjoyment and Fun
Gateway M-Series and T-Series models sold through Gateway's direct sales channels come with the latest 
technology that makes them ready for viewing High Definition video and listening to high quality audio. The 
systems each come with an HDMI interface that ensures delivery of the highest-quality uncompressed digital 
video and audio directly from the source, so content can be enjoyed as it's meant to be. A high-resolution display 
option on the Gateway M-Series model delivers 1080p viewing capabilities for HD images at 1920 x 1200 
resolution.

Additional multimedia features let customers enjoy video, music, games and online entertainment on the go. 
The precision-touch multimedia panel is integrated into the keyboard surround with smooth-cut keys, giving 
customers convenient access to frequently-used audio and video functions such as DVD, audio, stop, fast-
forward, and rewind. Volume can be controlled by the new touch-sensitive volume slide. Front-access audio 
ports provide a convenient connection for headphones.

In the coming months, even more options will be available to customers. Realistic PC games and graphic-
intensive applications can be enjoyed with optional ATI Mobility Radeon™ HD 2400 XT PCI Express graphics on 
the Gateway M-Series notebooks. Additional options for optical drives will also be available on both lines, 
including a slot-load DVD burner for convenient media access as well as HD DVD™ and Blu-ray™ optical drive 
options for even more compelling HD video.

The new Gateway notebook lines both can be equipped with Intel® Centrino® Mobile Technology and an Intel® 
Core™ 2 Duo processor, ensuring they are able to handle advanced multimedia functions as well as multiple 
applications while providing maximum battery life and wireless connectivity.

On-Demand Connectivity Keeps Customers In Touch
Customers will be able to stay connected to the Internet and email with the Gateway M-Series and T-Series 
notebooks' advanced connectivity options. An integrated 1.3 megapixel webcam enables video conferencing 
and video emails. Wireless access via hotspots is possible with multiple wireless options including 802.11a/b/g 
or next-generation 802.11 Draft-N. Optional integrated Bluetooth technology allows customers to wirelessly 
connect to peripherals such as printers, mobile phones, as well as a keyboard and mouse. The wireless 
connections can be turned off with a dedicated switch for power conservation or use on a plane.

The new notebooks come with multiple battery options for long battery life and mobility, letting customers use 
their notebooks to their potential. They each come standard with a six-cell battery. An extended 9-cell battery is 
also available.

Design-Optimized for Usability with Eye-Catching Style
The all-new industrial design of the Gateway M-Series and T-Series notebooks make them stand out in a crowd. 
The design features distinctive eye- catching graduated sphere Ridgeview™ design over Crimson Red™, Pacific 
Blue™ and Slate Grey™ enhanced by other treatments such as a unique aluminum keyboard surround surface, 
slimming metal profiling and deluxe trims. Plus, the unique high-quality finish protects the embedded graphic, 
providing a smooth, stylish notebook exterior.

In addition, every aspect of the Gateway M-Series and T-Series notebooks' elegant design maximizes customer 
enjoyment of the advanced features. For example, the optional integrated fingerprint reader located below the 
touchpad can be used for user authentication and data protection and can serve as a password bank for access 
to password-provided websites, folders, documents and applications. Plus, the widescreen design provides room 
for viewing multiple documents and applications while also making room for a full-sized keyboard.

To help protect the customer's data and investment, Gateway M-Series and T-Series notebooks are pre-installed

Irvine, CA, June 1 - Gateway, Inc. today announced that it's won the leading position in Technology Business 
Research's (TBR) Corporate IT Buying Behavior and Customer Satisfaction Study for Corporate Desktops in the 
first quarter of 2007.

For the third consecutive reporting period, Gateway holds the number one rank for corporate desktops. TBR

value and overall satisfaction. Recent gains are reflected in Gateway's rising customer loyalty positions and a 
substantial increase in hardware quality.

Gateway Strengthens Retail Presence, Bringing the First Quad- Core Desktop to Retail Stores From a Top Tier Manufacturer

Gateway Also Brings Another Branded Accessory to Major Retailers With the Gateway Portable Media 
Drive Kit, Providing an Easy Solution for Transferring or Backing Up Data
 
IRVINE, Calif., May 1 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Building on its success with its award-winning quad-core 
desktops sold directly to PC enthusiasts over the phone and web, Gateway is now offering a quad-core 
desktop to consumers via major retailers. Based on its popular FX Series, these systems are perfect for 
consumers that desire high-end graphics for gaming or digital creation.

"Not only is Gateway the first major manufacturer to put a quad-core desktop in retail, but the aggressive price 
point sends a message to both consumers and retailers: pay attention to this system, because Gateway means 
business in expanding the enthusiast sector," said John Spindler, research analyst, Current Analysis. "The 
value proposition of the Gateway FX Series is astounding when we compare it to similarly configured systems; 
in some instances, it has an incredible $1,000 price/performance advantage."

In addition, Gateway will be offering its unique Portable Media Drive Kit in retail outlets, expanding the availability 
of Gateway-branded accessories in consumer electronics stores. The 120GB Portable Media Drive will be 
available May 1, and will work in Gateway's mainstream desktop PC line, which includes the matching bay.

"Expanding our product offerings in retail has been an important element in Gateway's strategy," said John 
Schindler, director of consumer products for Gateway. "By introducing unique and competitively priced products 
such as the FX Series of quad-core desktops and our Gateway Portable Media Drive, we are strengthening 
our brand and delivering compelling solutions to our retail customer set."

Bringing Affordability to PCs with the Most Extreme Power and Cutting-Edge Graphics Capabilities Available 

The Gateway FX line for retail customers is equipped with Intel® Core™ 2 Quad Q6600 processors, 512MB 
ATI Radeon® X1950 CrossFire™ video cards, Gigabit Ethernet, and 1,000GB or 500GB of hard drive storage(1). 
Prices for Gateway's retail FX line start at an MSRP of $2,099.99.

Digital enthusiasts will especially appreciate the enormous storage for managing large digital photo and video 
libraries. The powerful ATI GPU is ideal for playing and authoring high-definition digital video, and gamers will 
find their online game playing experience more realistic and responsive than ever.

"We've seen tremendous demand over the phone and web for our quad-core desktop line," said Schindler. 
"But many PC shoppers still like to purchase computers from their local retailer, and to date, the only choices 
available for a quad-core system have been extremely expensive propositions from boutique specialists. As a 
major manufacturer with proven success in this space, we are bringing to market a much more affordable, yet 
still powerful system, greatly expanding their options."

Gateway Portable Media Drive Simplifies Transferring or Backing Up Data
With an estimated selling price of $149.99, the Gateway Portable Media Drive kit includes a pre-formatted 
2.5-inch 120GB PATA hard drive(1) and a protective sleeve to guard against dings and scratches. A custom 
USB cable with a double headed end supports both USB 2.0 and USB 1.1, without the need for an a/c 
adapter. Color coded ends make it easy to determine which end should be used for data transference or for 
connecting to a power source.

The Gateway Portable Media drive is now available in major retail outlets including Best Buy, Circuit City, CompUSA and American TV.

Gateway Enhances Server Line With an Entry-Level Tower Powered by AMD, Redefining Value and Performance

IRVINE, Calif., March 15 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Redefining the feature set of a value server, the Gateway® 
E-9232T gives customers a choice of powerful AMD processors and several advanced technologies not typically 
available in an entry-level server.

Powered by either a dual-core AMD Opteron 1000 Series processor or a single-core AMD Athlon 64 processor 
3500+, the E-9232T also includes Gateway Lights Out (GLO) system management, optional remote keyboard/
video/mouse (K/V/M) technology, integrated RAID support and optional hot-swappable redundant power supplies.

Its low price point and compelling technologies make it an affordable, yet powerful server that can help small- 
and medium-sized businesses run efficiently and securely.

Recent IDC research (LANs and Servers in US SMBs(1)) noted that many small and medium-sized organizations 
are still using traditional desktops, despite the growing popularity of local networks. "Even with the appeal of the 
latest network technology, the lack of full-time IT staff can make it hard for smaller companies to step up to the 
investment," said Ray Boggs, vice president for SMB research IDC. "The availability and affordability of new 
servers like the E-9232T can provide a powerful alternative to desktop approaches, letting smaller firms gain 
access to network capabilities for the first time."

Additionally, small- and medium-sized businesses running Microsoft Small Business Server (SBS) will find it an 
ideal platform to run all their office tasks. It has the power and features necessary to easily handle Internet, 
networking and productivity applications such as email, file and print sharing and financial or database programs.

"Server technology is not just for large companies with big budgets and dedicated IT staff," said Steven 
VanRoekel, director of the Windows Server Solutions group at Microsoft. "With Windows Small Business 
Server 2003 R2 on the new Gateway E-9232T, customers will be able to cost-effectively boost their productivity 
and better ensure system security."

Failing technology can be disastrous for small businesses which operate in a retail environment. NetSolace, an 
independent software vendor specializing in point-of-sale solutions for a vast majority of the nation's franchises, 
exclusively uses Gateway tower servers for their customers' installations. NetSolace uses Gateway business 
class servers instead of high-end desktops due to their high-reliability and affordability. Combined with Gateway's 
four-hour on-site support(2), NetSolace is assured their customers' operations are running at peak efficiency, 
cost-effectively, and that their data is well protected.

Powerful Technologies Redefine Value and Raise the Bar for Others

Powered by either an AMD Opteron dual-core or Athlon single-core processor, the Gateway E-9232T brings true 
server performance and advanced capabilities to the value category.

"Our relationship with AMD has allowed us to develop another compelling server with leading technologies," 
said Marc Tanguay, Gateway senior group manager, servers and storage. "With excellent performance and 
advanced system management, the E-9232T offers benefits typically not found in an entry-level system."

Bringing a high level of efficiency to IT departments, Gateway Lights Out (GLO) system management allows 
customers to remotely shut down and re-start their server regardless of power condition. An optional low-cost 
remote control K/V/M with media redirect features enables IT managers to take full remote control of a server.

Customers will also find leading serviceability features such as color-coded components and a tool-less chassis 
and motherboard, making the product easy to support and deploy.

Nicely equipped but with room to grow, the server features dual integrated 10/100/1000 GbE NICs and video; 
five PCI slots; and DDR2 unbuffered ECC memory with four sockets, providing memory capacity of up to 8GB. 
Highly expansive with room for four 3.5-inch hard disk drives, it has a storage capacity of up to 3.0TB with 
SATA II drives(3). Integrated SATA RAID 1, 5 and 10 offers greater redundancy and integrity.

"Providing the widest variety of computing options to infrastructure providers and end customers, Gateway has 
leveraged the performance and value benefits of the AMD Opteron and AMD Athlon 64 processors to help 
small and medium sized businesses run applications more efficiently while helping provide enterprise developers 
with low-cost, dedicated systems," said Pat Patla, director, Server/Workstation Division, AMD. "By making 
the choice to expand its AMD offerings to include rack-mount and now tower servers, we believe Gateway 
has enhanced its server line in the right direction."

New Gateway NAS Servers Provide Simple Solutions for Data Storage and Backup

Irvine, CA, March 1 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Gateway today announced five new Network Attached Storage 
(NAS) devices featuring Microsoft Windows Storage Server 2003 R2 and a choice of Intel® Xeon® processors 
or AMD Opteron processors.

As organizations consolidate and back up their data and centralize their file and print functions, quick and easy 
deployment has become a critical and decisive factor for many IT managers and business owners. Preconfigured 
for simple plug and play installation, Gateway's new rack mount storage servers provide seamless integration into 
existing storage configurations, allowing customers to get up and running quickly. The new models are the 
E-9422R; E-9425R, E-9522R, E-9525R and the E-9520T Storage Servers.

NAS servers can act as file servers hosting files or as local print servers. They're ideal for any environment 
requiring end-users to continually access and share documents that are stored and safeguarded in a central, 
highly protected environment vs. a personal desktop. This includes hospital personnel accessing medical files 
or educational institutions, which require students to save their lessons to a central server, so teachers can 
easily access their schoolwork.

"We are seeing increased demand for networked storage across the board from all of our customer segments," 
said Barry Silvester, senior product manager, Enterprise Storage Platforms. "These five new storage servers 
give our customers powerful yet easy-to-use solutions for all their data storage needs. Their affordability makes 
them particularly attractive, especially when you consider the benefits they offer."

Organizations such as the Poway Unified School District in Poway, Calif., are experiencing the benefits of 
Gateway storage products. The district recently chose to deploy Gateway storage platforms as part of a disaster 
recovery solution for its elementary and middle schools, as well as its administrative center. Using this system 
helps safeguard the school district from partially or completely interrupted crucial functions, such as daily record 
keeping, retrieving critical student information or accessing software applications necessary for the curriculum. 
The Gateway solution also provides the IT staff with a means to manage and restore normal operations quickly 
and seamlessly if a disaster does occur.

"Gateway's understanding of our operational aspects was essential in finding the right technology to meet our 
disaster recovery needs," said Robert J. Gravina, chief technology officer at Poway Unified School District. 
"Gateway's disaster recovery solution allows us to maintain business continuity in the event of a disaster, as 
well as recover quickly from any disruptions to our fundamental business processes and systems."

Packing numerous high-performance features into their compact rack mount and scalable tower designs, the 
servers offer best-in-class storage technologies, including hot swappable high-capacity SATA or SAS hard 
drives and redundant hot swappable cooling and power options.

The new storage servers also come equipped with manageability features, including Web-based management 
for Windows 2003 Storage Server; Gateway Systems Manager; and Gateway Lights Out (GLO) system 
management. GLO brings a high-level of efficiency to professional customers, allowing a server to be remotely 
shut down, re-started and managed regardless of its power condition. An optional low-cost remote control 
K/V/M with media redirect features enables full remote control of a server. This capability allows customers 
to set up, manage or add applications from their desktop, notebook or another server through a floppy disk 
drive or CD.

In addition, Gateway Professional Services can help customers plan their storage strategies and identify the 
best products and technologies for their business needs.

Gateway M680 Widescreen Mobile Workstation Raises the Bar for Mobile Performance and Graphics

IRVINE, Calif., March 31 - Gateway today takes mobile computing to new highs with the Gateway(R) M680 
notebook PC, the company's new 17-inch widescreen mobile workstation that provides the ultimate in 
performance and dedicated graphics capabilities for professionals and 
consumers.  
     
The new Gateway M680 provides several significant improvements over its popular predecessor, the M675, and 
delivers several advanced features unavailable from other products in its class. Shipping with the latest Intel 
Centrino Mobile technology(1) and ATI Mobility RADEON X700 PCI Express graphics, the Gateway M680 
delivers double the graphics performance of its predecessor.  And despite all of the performance enhancements, 
the Gateway M680 is a pound lighter and significantly thinner than its predecessor -- the new Gateway M680 
weighs just 7.7 pounds and measures as thin as 1.24 inches.

"With the launch of the new Gateway M680 notebook, we are once again upping the ante in the notebook 
market by delivering one of the most powerful and innovative new 17-inch widescreen notebooks available 
today," said Dan Stevenson, Gateway's vice president, product marketing.  "The M680 combines the 
performance you expect in a workstation or high-end desktop PC, with a notebook that doesn't sacrifice size, 
weight or battery life."  

Additionally, with the new Gateway M360, Gateway makes attractive 15.4-inch widescreen displays more 
accessible to consumers.  It is one of the industry's lowest-priced 15.4-inch widescreen notebooks with prices
starting at just $849.99. 

Gateway M680: Ultimate Mobile Performance for Work, Graphics and Gaming 
The new Gateway M680 notebook boasts an impressive 17-inch widescreen display, the most powerful Intel 
mobile technologies available, dedicated PCI Express graphics and other advanced features to provide the 
ultimate in mobile performance for work and play.  

The Gateway M680 was designed from the ground up to deliver the best system performance in a truly 
mobile computer.  Based on the Intel(R) 915 chipset, the M680 features the latest Intel(R) Pentium(R) M 
processors with 533MHz front side bus and fast Dual Channel DDR2 memory expandable to 2GB.  Ready for 
graphic-intense applications and digital media, the Gateway M680 includes dedicated ATI Mobility RADEON
(R)X700 PCI Express graphics with up to 128MB of video memory, up to 7200rpm hard drives, and the latest 
n Dual Layer Multi-format DVD-RW drive.  The M680 also includes all of the high speed connectivity required 
by mobile workstation professionals including 10/100/1000 Ethernet and 802.11b/g or 802.11a/b/g wireless 
LAN.

The M680 is the perfect mobile platform for enterprise customers supporting Gateway's stable hardware and 
image programs.  In addition, IT departments will appreciate how the M680 and other Gateway notebooks for 
professionals reduce long-term costs and platform management by sharing the same components and 
accessories like the advanced port replicator, batteries and AC adapters.  For example, IT can stock or install 
one Gateway AC Adapter in conference rooms and support the entire new family of Gateway notebooks for 
professionals.  Also, the M680 can be utilized in a range of environments, since it can be customized with a 
wide array of features, including processors, memory, hard drives and optical drives. 

One of the most dramatic aspects of the Gateway M680 is the PC's high-resolution 17-inch widescreen display.  
It accommodates large spreadsheets or multiple applications on the screen simultaneously, allowing 
professionals to easily review multiple information sources at once. 

"Widescreen format notebooks are increasingly sought after by both businesses and consumers," said Roger 
Kay, vice president, client computing, IDC.  "These generously sized machines let customers take advantage 
of extra screen real estate to view more data at once or enjoy a more compelling digital entertainment 
experience."  

Another differentiating feature is the notebook's dedicated 10-key numeric key pad that makes it more 
convenient for finance, engineering and other professionals to quickly input numerical data.

All of the high-performance features that make Gateway's M680 the ultimate mobile workstation also enable it 
to be the premier gaming and entertainment notebook.  With high-end 17-inch widescreen panels, the latest in 
Intel chipset and processor technologies, and the latest ATI RADEON PCI Express graphics, the M680 is 
ideal for games, graphics and DVD movies.  Premium features like the latest multi-format DVD/CD burner and a 
four-in-one memory card reader give computer users a convenient way to access, store and share digital media.
