I think it is pretty much hit or miss. You might get a bad batch of computers and then a good batch.
I have had this Gateway for 3 years and have only had to restore it once, the Dell has had to be resored countless times, and crashed once. (Had to have a tech come and charge us $400 to fix the stupid thing) it still locks up all the time, slow (takes literally about 12 minutes to unlock after plugging an I-Pod into it) etc.
I know I will never buy a Dell myself. Both Gateways I have had have been great. My mom just got an Acer laptop, seems to be pretty nice, not the most powerful thing in the world but it gets the job done.
