Gateway M255-E Review, Specs and Price

Gateway M255-E

Gateway of the leading manufacturer of laptop has announced another Gateway series laptop model named Gateway M255-E. This is our second look at Gateway's light yet powerful business laptop, the M255-E, in six months. Our evaluation unit's updated processor and RAM boosted it to the top half among currently tested all-purpose notebooks.

Our test model came with a 2-GHz Core 2 Duo T7200 processor and 1GB of DDR2-667 SDRAM. It earned a WorldBench 5 score of 100, 10 percent better than the mark of 90 earned by our previous review unit equipped with 512MB of DDR2-667 SDRAM and the now-discontinued 2-GHz Core Duo T2500 chip. Notebooks similar in configuration to our current M255 received slightly higher scores but not enough to make a real difference in speed. You can get the Gateway M255-E only $1249.
