Gateway T-1628 Refurbished Notebook PC reviews

Even since before, I’m always loyal to Gateway computers. I bought another new version again just last week which is the Gateway T-1628 Refurbished Notebook PC. What I like most about this new version of gateway is that it is more highly updated than my previous computers I own at home which is the desktop and the other one is a laptop.
Gateways has never frustrates me and it always meets my needs. My Gateway T-1628 Refurbished Notebook PC has exceeded my expectations out of its overwhelming features that really work efficiently wherever I go. With my previous desktop before, it was infected by virus since I have not installed a software virus in it. Now, I don’t have to buy anymore because it’s all in the package.
Gateway T-1628 Refurbished Notebook PC features Windows Vista Home Premium operating system that promotes security plus AMD Turion™ 64 X2 Dual-Core Mobile TL-60 2.0GHz processor. My Gateway T-1628 Refurbished Notebook PC keeps me mobile all the time and I don’t have trouble turning it on and off unlike the desktop though it functions well when it is completely turned on. But I guess it’s all about the processor.
With my Gateway T-1628 Refurbished Notebook PC, I can handle things simultaneously. I work on spreadsheets, while chatting with my family and friends with its built-in wireless connectivity plus virus scanning activity. Still it runs smoothly and efficiently.
During my vacant time, I make use of my Gateway T-1628 Refurbished Notebook PC and watch my favorite movie. This notebook is very cute and nice and I really like it especially its 1.3 mega pixel web cam and high-definition audio. Other features that make up the wholeness of my Gateway T-1628 Refurbished Notebook are (3) USB 2.0 ports, a VGA port, a Kensington lock slot a HDMI connector, and a HDMI connector.

Customer Reviews

For my first purchase, and first refurbished item from tigerdirect.com this is perfect. The laptop looks brand new, no scratches, nothing broken, like brand new!! The only flaw is vista and the bloated software that came with it. It actually slowed it down….so I formatted the whole thing and put Windows 7 on it.The sound from the laptop to my 2.1 speakers is insane! I wouldn’t trade this laptop for any other, not even a MAC lol. Now its blazing fast!!! Not missing a beat. I’ll recommend people install Windows 7 even though its a beta, its way better than vista.
