I never owned the Gateway 2000, but I was at a thrift store and I saw the Windows 3.11 Installer for the Gatewayy 2000. It was a pain to setup. Drivers never worked in VirtualPC.
Wow! He boasts about the CD-ROM drive like it's a big thing. I remember when you had to listen to an audio CD if you wanted to listen to music and prayed to god that the crappy sound card that came in the Gateway 2000 even worked. BTW was it just me, or were the Gateway Cows creepy as hell?
That was my fuckin dream system when I was a kid, That huge desktop machine! And that crystal scan 1080 monitor was clear as hell back then. Needless I never got it and was stuck with a tandy 1000tx, And my next upgrade was a packard hell.
I had a 2000 from 1998, it was a fine machine but I have since moved on. It's a shame Gateway went and sold out their customer support. Had they avoided that, I think they still might have a fighting chance in the computer market today.
i actually have a gateway 2000. not a 1994 one, but one they made in 1998. Gateway once was one of the top brands. Now they are slowly fading away... :-(
I also own a gateway 2000 computer with a Intel Penitum II 233mhz cpu mine is a g6-233 model used to run windows 98 it now has windows xp with 256mb of ram. It's old but it served me well when my HP Media center Pc 864n suffered a motherboard failure.
I used my gateway 2000 for a long time until I got my new dell vostro 200 mini tower I still have my gateway 2000 g6-233 from 1998 also I also have a gateway g6-400 from 1999
Great PC for the time. My grandpa had one of these. I loved it. The Windows 95 was great. I was only 4 then, so I do not really remember it much. I only used it 2 times. Now my uncle has it. I want to buy it. I want to see if it could run XP and Vista. But first, use 95 for a few years.
Now my grandpa bought a Windows 98 PC. it had 98 for like 10 years, then I upgraded it to XP Home Edition. Goes real fast!
My grandpa had one of these! I only used it twice, to play solitaire. He gave it to my uncle just to sit there. Not setup. Just sitting there having people mess with the keyboard. I might buy it. I don't know.
My 3rd PC was a P5 133 Gateway 2000. The screen was made in the UK and the PC was made in Ireland (or vice versa). I loved it, and I still love it, and thankfully I still have it. It never deceived me...
