Shop Gateway computers online first
Find current Gateway computers for sale by checking the Gateway online store first. The Gateway computer store online will offer you the most up-to-date information on Gateway computer models and pricing.
I recommend: Check out
Gateway desktops and
Gateway notebook computers to compare features and pricing directly from the manufacturer. You can buy Gateway PCs directly from the Gateway store online, or just get the product information and shop elsewhere.

Gateway computer stores frequently offer special package deals on Gateway desktop computers and Gateway laptops when you buy direct. Gateway also frequently offers pre-owned options for buying a Gateway PC on a budget.
I recommend: Check out the

used Gateway computers in the Gateway outlet online.
Check out Gateway computers in person from Gateway computer distributors
Large computer retailers frequently carry Gateway computers and also offer great deals and sale prices from time to time. Check with your local branch and sale circulars to find out the best time to buy, and use retailers to check out the features of Gateway computers in person.
I recommend: Circuit City and
Best Buy both sell Gateway computers in store and online. You can check out the distributor websites for the Gateway models you are interested in, sort by price, and check in-store availability. If you're ordering a computer, you buy it through one of these distributors and have it shipped to the store free of charge. Retailers, as well as
