Alright check out this little pretty number right here. This is the Gateway MC7801u.
Very interesting number, wish they'd give these things some names or some easier
model numbers to remember. But remember this one as the Pretty Gateway.
This is the prettiest Gateway I've ever seen. I don't know where they went with their styling,
but I mean they must have hired somebody who works for Apple or something,
'cause this is incredible. Take a look at this laptop, it is beautiful.
All aluminum, on the front. Okay? Shiny black, Ok, but very flat.
Very flat keyboard. The keyboard is all backlit. That is very cool. It's orange backlit,
and then there's Multi Touch... Not Multi Touch but touch sensitive controls on both sides.
I don't know if you can see them. Let me angle this a little bit higher.
There you go. You see them, they're a little dim, but they did that on purpose, to not distract you.
Your lights, activity lights are down here. Hard drive, battery and power charger,
and then over here are your media keys. So your touch sensitive volume is right there,
and then up... You know, next track, left track, mute, all that stuff is right there.
The other thing you'll notice is really cool about it is the completely flush monitor bezel.
There is no bezel here, it's just completely flat, and it looks really cool.
The webcam, is also built into the top, completely flat you can barely see it,
incredible looking machine. I am really really impressed by this, but,
don't think that it's all about the looks because it is not at all. Core 2 Duo, T5800,
64 bit Vista Home Premium, 4 'gigs' of RAM, 320 'gig' hard drive,
DVD super Uber, multi layer deluxe, everything drive, it does everything. Labelflash,
which is kind of like, what is Labelflash like? - LightScribe. - LightScribe.
It's like LightScribe. Thank god for you guys. Just like LightScribe, prints a contrast image
onto your disk, using the same laser that it uses to burn the actual DVD or CD.
Which is actually really cool, very professional, if you want to give a demo disk to somebody,
or you want to be professional about anything with a disk, you LightScribe it,
or you LabelFlash it, and it's going to look really great. Everything else on here,
is incredible. It's got HDMI output. Let's take a look at some of the ports.
Before I actually go and show you the ports, I want to show you the back of this,
'cause it's actually kind of unique. Check it out, it's red, leather accenting,
all chrome, with a chrome Gateway up here at the top, it is a huge fingerprint magnet.
But that is Ok because you get a little rag to clean it with.
And you will be using that a lot. It's still worth it though. Just because it's a fingerprint magnet
it's worth it. This thing is incredibly sharp, the monitor and the keypad and all that stuff
is really cool so... Alright, I'm sorry, I'm going to get right to business, 'cause,
I'm just really entranced by the way this thing looks. It looks really sharp.
VGA, HDMI, Gigabit Ethernet, 56K modem V92, 2 USB 2.0 ports, 54 millimeter
ExpressCard slot, Multimedia Card Reader, SD, MMC, XD, MS, MS Pro, all onboard,
right there, stick this back in. Great great speakers on this Gateway. Very hidden,
it's this entire bar, is one big speaker and as you saw right there, 2 headset ports,
so 2 people can listen, you and your boyfriend or girlfriend or what not.
And microphone input is right there, and you come over to this side.
You see that super Uber deluxe, whatever I called it RW CDR, you know, whatever.
You get the point. It does +Rs , -Rs, RWs, RAMs, ROMs, Dual Layers, CDs and DVDs,
and it does LabelFlash, that mean it's called a super multi drive.
To make it legit in case somebody out there is thinking this kid's crazy,
what's he talking about? And finally, right over here, 2 USB 2.0 ports. Which are great,
that brings the grand total to 4. And 4 is 1 more than most laptops of this size have. Now,
let's talk about another interesting little facet of this device. This is a 16 inch monitor.
16 inches are kind of weird, huh? You don't see them very often. Very interesting.
It does 1366 by 768. So that is the resolution of this monitor, and it's absolutely incredible.
It's got one of the sharpest pictures I've ever seen, it's extremely bright.
Right now it's dimmed down quite a bit, but... I can't really brighten up too much
without it whiting out, but about there is as bright as I can go, and that's about halfway.
Incredibly sharp, incredibly bright, great contrast ratio, it does 1080p,
I'm sorry 720p absolutely no problem, it looks crystal clear in HD, and I'm telling you
this is one of the nicest looking laptops I've seen, in a really long time.
I love the monitor, I love the keyboard that's backlit, I love the trackpad,
I love the aluminum. It's very sharp, it's got a weird model number,
it is the MC7801u 16 inch notebook, by Gateway. If you have any question on it email me,
I'll see you guys next time.
