Pros: - cheap (value!) - build & case is surprisingly high quality - heatsink/fan is Coolermaster! components are sourced from quality - A6 is more than enough for a media/HTPC build
Cons: - hard drive is noisy - copious thermal grease on the cpu from factory - swapping ram is rough due to tight clearance removing DVD screws
Overall Review: Bought this for my brother as an early Christmas gift. Swapped the included 4GB of Kingston for 8GB of solid Corsair gaming. Was expecting to be able to up the ram frequency...no option in BIOS that i've found yet. Radeon memory maxes at 512MB in bios also...was hoping for 1GB/2GB option. The bios is holding this system back! Great otherwise though, surprising value and as always AMD is bulletproof after 12 hrs of Furmark.
Pros: * Fantastic value and very good versatility--excellent specifications for the price. * 1TB HDD (compare with similarly priced machines) * Small form factor is easy to fit into small rooms, desks, entertainment centers, etc. * Quiet and inoffensive * Processor is snappy for the price, and the system delivers solid graphics performance and flawless video playback (I've tested up to 1080p). Bottom Line: The very good specs and form factor, coupled with the very reasonable price, make it ideal for many roles. I can easily see this as an office workstation or a perfect HTPC. It's also a good base for a build-your-own system. Mine is being tested and configured as a gift for my grandfather.
Cons: * I had to RMA the first unit that I received. (Newegg support was fantastic, incidentally). Because the comments are overwhelmingly positive, and because the second system is working flawlessly, I think it's fair to say that this was an outlier and I will not deduct any eggs for this. * No wireless capability out of the box (I'm using a USB dongle, you can probably use a PCI/e card to do it). * No room for a second drive, so it will never be a brilliant gaming computer, which would require an SSD (hopefully in addition to the 1TB drive). Grandfather won't care.
Overall Review: Highly recommended as a gift, for general computing, HTPC, or office workstation (albeit with high graphics performance compared with CPU for a traditional workstation). Certainly good for tinkering, but the small form factor and space for only one drive might limit people who want to use it as a base for a gaming PC. Highly inappropriate for server use (but no one would use it for that).
Pros: I've been a Gateway owner ever since I owned a computer for about 8 years and have never been disappointed. I'm very impressed with the Gateway SX2370-UR30P and first time that I hooked a monitor up with an HDMI cord and love it. I watch a lot of programs on the computer and graphics are awesome. It also has all the power a I need for everyday tasks
Cons: none
Pros: Cheap (cost), efficient, super easy to upgrade ram *supports up to 16 gig DDR3 (currently running 12)*, small footprint (great MCPC), ton of usb ports including USB 3, front side usb and card reader is great....quiet and low energy consumption....for sub $500 computer you can't beat the specs and for a quad core in this price range that runs as it was built to and doesn't sacrifice anything for it its a real steal!
Cons: I didn't find this sooner...would have been super awesome with a wifi card integrated but for $20 I picked up a wireless-n 150 netgear adapter and I have no complaints...even managed to bridge the connections and am running my vonage adapter out the Ethernet
Overall Review: works great for ubuntu 11.10 dual boot (run from DVD not wubi.exe installer), run speedfan (http://www.almico.com/sfscreenshots.php) to keep the cooling in check, be careful loading CDs/DVDs if vertically mounted or standing....super awesome HDMI out connected up to a 42" LG tv and plays video super clear
Pros: I was surprised by the amount of power this 'lil guy has. It was much faster than I expected and ran a large number of games that I was expecting it wouldn't be able to. WOW ran at about 35fps in high settings. For integrated graphics and a sub-2.5ghz CPU, that's amazing to me.
Cons: I wanted to add an HD 6570 into one of the slots and crossfire it with the integrated graphics, but the power supply is too weak and wouldn't likely be able to handle a card that would up the graphical specs. I'm still happy with the computer, but I will likely be upgrading the PSU soon. Also, I would have liked faster memory installed, but what's there still works.
Overall Review: I use this mostly to emulate game consoles that I no longer felt deserved the right to be in my entertainment center. With a couple of adapters, I emulate the Wii in 1080p, the PS2 in ~720p and all the older consoles in ~480p. It's really freed up space. Now it's just this thing and my PS3. I have XBMC on it and it runs everything smoothly. I'm glad I bought this guy instead of building my own HTPC from scratch, though I will be upgrading the PSU soon.
Pros: It doesn't take up much space.
Cons: It doesn't take up much space because there's nothing TO IT. BAD PC.
Overall Review: Its good that this PC is no longer sold. Don't buy a PC like this, even a newer one.
Pros: Fast CPU and mobo, large hard drive, 4 RAM slots, 64-bit OS, small footprint
Cons: Small con... I love the small profile, but there's no room to fit a second hard drive in there.
Overall Review: This is the second one I've purchased for our office. I added two more sticks of 2GB RAM (now 8GB total) and the system runs very fast.

Pros: Updating Last Post
Cons: Nothing more to add here
Overall Review: I just wanted to add that now since I have had this for a little longer I have noticed the drive isn't a noisy as it was before so maybe it just needed to run a little to work that out. I absolutely love my new computer!!
