User Reviews about Gateway LT2108u 10.1-Inch Red Netbook - Over 8 Hours of Battery Life
Love this netbook! Researching and reading reviews of all the top rated netbooks led me to choose Gateway. Perfect look, size and weight. Set up was a breeze - going through the initial windows setting up passwords etc. Connection to printer went smoothly. Keyboard is very easy to type on as it is almost full size, it's just the shift and enter keys on the side which are smaller. Screen view is bright, sharp and clear. Touchpad is sensitive, and took me a bit to get used to, so I have a wireless mouse to use if I intend to work for a longer period of time - I'm just more used to that. I purchased the netbook to use at meetings, email, web surfing and travel. It's meet all those needs quite easily. It's so portable and easy to carry around. Screen view when reading documents is approx 1/3 to 1/2 the page at a time. For my uses the battery lasts a approx. 7 hours and 45 minutes. It takes a full 2 hours to fully charge the battery. Viewing video from youtube is not a problem - I feel that there's more than enough memory on this netbook. Also through Amazon I purchased the Higher Ground 10" mini shuttle case with cooling dock which is a fantastic case - I mention it because when I use it for 4-5 hours at a time the cooling dock really does it's job. -- excellent performing netbook
I bought the Gateway LT a month ago. I had the option to get a larger bigger and fancier one but insisted to my husband I wanted something portable. I also could have opted for an ipad which I want some day but right now I needed something more computer-y. My concerns were viewing the screen and keyboard. I went to Best Buy to try a few small ones out. I liked this keyboard the best and the looks of the Gateway. Needless to say I purchased it on Amazon. I am very pleased. My husband immediately made jokes about my little computer but after lugging his big one around, he started asking if he could use mine. The size of the keyboard does not bother me at all and I did transcription for years, so a lot of typing. I do recommend learning to zoom your screen in and out with the touch pad. I use that quite a bit. If not use the page menu and do it there. I also went to Office Depot and picked up a toggle mouse so I didn't have to use the touch pad all the time. For 299.00 you can't go wrong. I toss it in my purse and go. I use MS Works on it and thought I might not like that but so far its fine. Again, very happy with this little computer!! -- Love my Little Notebook
This Netbook is good in that it is light and easy to carry around. Performance is ok but, I feel that I will have to add another 1GB of memory to download certain items off the internet. -- Gateway LT2108u
This little netbook works great for what I need it for, and is a very good value for the price. I've had it for a few weeks and haven't run into any problems or frustrating issues with the machine or the OS.
For me, this is a great product to buy cheap and accessorize with other pieces to make it more usable. For example, I've added a DVD/CD burner drive, a secondhand monitor for home use (the little screen sometimes leaves me wishing for more space to view websites, etc) and an external hard drive for music. Even with all of that, it still comes out much less expensive than many alternatives. And it fits in my handbag.
The long battery life is terriffic. I'd recommend this product to anyone on a budget who needs a computer for all the basics but not much more. -- Very convenient, excellent value
