Reviews for the Gateway NV59c66u

70% Gateway NV59c Review
Source: Digital Trends
With prices between $579.99 and $799.99, it’s hard to overlook the NV59c’s potential as an affordable around-the-house entertainment machine. Especially if you opt for the Blu-ray variant. But don’t plan on taking it too far. Its bulk, poor battery life and ding-prone lid would make the NV59c a poor choice for travelling.

Gateway: Gateway, Incorporated. is a computer hardware company based in California which develops, manufactures, supports, and markets a wide range of personal computers, computer monitors, servers, and computer accessories. AOL acquired Gateway.net, the online component of Gateway  Inc., in 1999. 2007, Acer completed its acquisition of Gateway for approximately US$710 million. The market share outside of the US market is rather low.

In 2014 to 2016, Gateway did no longer belong to the Top 10 laptop manufacturers/distributors. Newer devices from Gateway are hardly reviewed by specialist media any longer (as of 2016).

70%: This rating is bad. Most notebooks are better rated. This is not a recommendation for purchase.
