Reviews for the Gateway MT6724b
Source: IT Reviews Archive.org version
With the price tag taken into account the MT6724b is a well featured notebook, and although the performance isn't that impressive, if all you want it for is mundane office work then it will perform without complaint.

This 15in notebook computer is designed to be something that can be used by everyone at home, from parents emailing and working, to children using the internet and playing games. It uses a Pentium Dual Core T2310 processor which runs at 1.47GHz. That's a reasonable speed, which is fast enough for most of the tasks for which this computer's going to be used, but if you try to edit video or play recent games the MT6724b might start to struggle.

The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, often allows high resolutions and thus offers rich details on the screen, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact - simply the standard compromise.
