Gateway’s first small form factor desktop line, the SX Series, delivers all the power and technology needed for general productivity use and casual gaming, in a tiny size. Small enough to fit nicely in a small dorm room or placed inconspicuously in a kitchen or the family den, it’s an ideal solution as a primary or secondary PC.
The first model available in the series is the $499.99 Gateway SX2800-01, which offers a powerful Intel® C2Q 8200 processor coupled with 4GB of memory for quick system response and powering through productivity and multimedia applications with ease.
Integrated Intel® Graphics delivers vibrant video, making it perfectly suited for watching movies, home video, viewing digital photos, or casual game playing. Home theater enthusiasts will appreciate the HDMI port, which delivers the highest quality visuals and high-fidelity audio to a big screen TV or external LCD through a single cable.
The new Gateway SX2800-01 will be available the last week of June at select retailers throughout the U.S. Additional models in this line will be available soon.
