[comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware] Seek info on 386 and Gateway machines

csran@warwick.ac.uk (Mr S J Russell) (11/28/90)

Hello one and all,

I am considering purchasing a 386 machine. Having had a look through BYTE and
PC World I came across an ad for Gateway machines. These seemed to be very
competitively priced with a considerable amount of hardware thrown in, ie.
4 Mb of RAM, 3.5" and 5.25" disc drives, 80 Mb Hard disc, VGA monitor +
card (512k RAM), DOS and Windows 3.0 to mention a few.

If you have had experience with Gateway or their machines I would very much
like to hear (or see :-)) your views on them and the machines. I would be
particularly interested to hear from people in England since this is where
I live. Do they have a toll free number? What's the after sales service like?
How long is the machine under guarantee for parts and labour? Do they have an
office in the UK?

If anyone has any views please email me.

        Yours looking for decent machine for sensible price,
                Stu
