Gateway LX6820-01

Better performance than its predecessor ; Plenty of memory and storage

Rival value PCs surpass it in performance ; Limited upgradability due to wasted space

Gateway upgrades its otherwise typical value-PC offering with some snazzier components, but the additions do little to help this desktop beat the competition.

Plenty of convenient front-panel ports. Card reader with auto-backup button. Standard TV tuner. Pull-out trays to add hard drives.

No Blu-ray player or eSATA port. Touch-panel control center is more esthetic than ergonomic.
