In answer to the questions posed at the start of this review, Gateway’s tech support number is printed on the outside of the case and there’s a one-year, back-to-base warranty on parts and labour. The GT5074b is no job lot, but a great, general-purpose home PC at a very good price. It has all that’s needed for photo enthusiasts, DVD movie and TV watchers and a security optional extra, in the form of a removable media drive. Gateway has also taken full advantage of Vista Home Premium by providing an analogue and Freeview TV tuner card, a remote control and enough capacity in the hard drive for PVR recordings. If you live close to a Tesco (and who doesn’t) you don’t even need to pay carriage costs.
