Those that are into audio and video editing will find the M500 to be the perfect companion for your computing needs.


Highs: Great sound system, beautiful wide-screen display, little heat

Lows: Cannot play music CD's with the cover closed, AV control unit is buggy

Summary

The Gateway M500 is a system that sets a new standard when it comes to multimedia laptops. With its integrated 20-bit stereo speakers complete with subwoofer, a 15.2” widescreen display, an SD memory card reader, and an integrated network card provided by Orinoco the M500 provides a stable and fun computing environment. Those that are into audio and video editing will find the M500 to be the perfect companion for your computing needs.  The M500 is a bargain for $1599 and if you have been contemplating a laptop purchase the M500 deserves a second look, especially before they are sold out.
