    Doesn't look like it has DVI out, but I suppose you could get and adapter for the VGA port. But, yes, it does have bluetooth as a build-to-order option ($50).

    Mach, you seem pretty knowledgeable on this machine. Did Gateway finally go with the crowd and integrate the bluetooth? Just curious.

    Not any more knowledgeable than the next guy, lol. I just did a little leg work for the guy who posted the bluetooth/DVI question by taking the time to go to Gateway's site and check out the build to order options. I assume the bluetooth is an add-on module, rather than integrated, because it didn't list it as standard in the specs, but it was listed available as an optional $50 upgrade when I hit the "Configure" button.
