Reviews for the Gateway LT3106a
Source: Reseller News Archive.org version
Overall, there’s a lot to like about this offering from Acer Gateway, but the operating system of Windows Vista Home Basic may dissuade buyers looking to jump on the Windows 7 bandwagon. The LT3106a retails for $1099. This falls within the higher range for a netbook, but the more powerful specifications and the bigger screen size mean it’s value for money.
