Great laptop

I bought this one about a week ago because my 3 year old HP died.
So far I can find nothing wrong with it. Love the extended keyboard, keys are still big and feel just right and very responsive. Touch pad is a little too much to the left for my liking but I get used to that. Sound is fantastic and so much better then my old one and much louder too. It comes with very little bloadware that was easy enough to uninstall. 4 gigs of memory is just right and the 500 gig hard drive is a bonus. It’s not very heavy at all and I noticed very little heat when I have it on my lap. I am very happy with my purchase which was on impulse, there were no reviews for it and I have never owned any Gateway products before.

Update (5/19/2012): This item is currently on sale here for the lowest price I’ve seen. I also found some auctions for this item here.

Bad Customer Service
Gateway customer service is bad. A customer rep entered the wrong registration date for my laptop. I have called 3 times, emailed and faxed the requested proof of purchase. They always say it will be resolved in 48 hours.It’s been almost a month and the issue is still not resolved. And now they are claiming that they never received my fax. Something’s wrong with the company. If they cannot resolve a simple issue like registration, how can they resolve bigger issues?! I will not buy Gateway again.

Fantastic, reasonably priced computer!
I bought this as a gateway to use for computer games, images, music, etc. I am a writer and I wanted to be able to use my laptop for work, others only. I have not fully explored the computer, but I have no complaints about the NV5820 Gateway. I like Windows 7 (though I still hate Office 2007), and other software that came in the package was beautiful. It was a little bigger than I expected, but it was not a problem for me. I saw some comments that suggested something was wrong with the touchpad. Personally, I have no problem with that at all. And I like that this laptop has a 10-key!
