Gateway doesn’t want to be left in the wind when it comes to news today, and they’ve managed to work up quite a good bit of press about their ZX Series of All-in-One PCs. This time around, the series is getting a bit of a refreshing addition, in the fact that two new models are being introduced. Please welcome the Gateway ZX4300-01e and ZX6900-01e. The names have a ring to them, don’t they?
Just roll right off the tongue. The first of the batch, the ZX4300-01e, features an AMD Athlon II X2 235e processor, ATI Radeon HD 4270 graphics, and a 640GB SATA 7200 RPM hard drive. The first thing you’ll notice is the large, 20-inch touchscreen UltraBright LCD with 1600×900 resolution. It’s offered with Windows 7 Home Premium Edition, 64-bit, and it has 4GB of DDR3 dual-channel memory at 133MHz. It has a wireless mouse and keyboard, and has integrated WiFi 802.11b/g/n. The ZX4300-01e will be available at a major electronics retailer starting the first week of June, and will start at $749.99. Additional models, with faster AMD processors and TV Tuners will be available starting in July.
As for the ZX6900-01e, here’s what you get in the all-in-one package: an Intel Core i3 530 processor, a slot-loaded Blu-Ray/DVD drive, and high-definition audio with 5.1-channel surround sound support. It also comes with Windows 7 Home Premium Edition, 64-bit, but you can enjoy it a little bit more on your 23-inch touchscreen, UltraBright LCD, with full HD quality. It also has Intel Graphics Media Accelerator to take advantage of those HD graphics. You’re looking at 4GB of DDR3 dual channel memory (133MHz), a 640GB 7200 RPM SATA hard drive, and wireless keyboard and mouse. It’s also featuring built-in 802.11b/g/n WiFi, and it also has 6 USB ports. The ZX6900-01e is available right now in major electronic retailers nationwide, and you can pick it up starting at $1,019.99. There will be another model available in June, and will include the faster Intel Core i5 650 processor and a TV Tuner.
