When it comes to the main strength of the Gateway E-100M and NX100X, it's price.

Lows: 3 cell battery does not have a long life; external DVD burner; picky with WiFi access points

Introduction

Editor's Choice

Over the last few years, we've seen laptop screens growing in size. Today, you can buy a Dell "mobile entertainment system" with a 20-inch screen! However, as screens get bigger and bigger, battery life and mobility gets worse and worse. On the other side of the spectrum are the ultraportable 12" notebooks. These have gotten smaller and lighter, but one thing hasn't changed: an exorbitant price… until now. Gateway hopes to change that with their NX100X and E-100M, their ultraportable notebooks for the masses.
