    I was watching today and episode from Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles and I noticed that even John Conor, the future leader of humanity uses a Gateway FX gamer laptop :D I know it is not kinda a big deal, but before this I only saw IBM, Dell, and Nec brands in series/movies so this Gateway (and expesially the FX) was new to me :D Gateway is becomming better is more well known... :)

    Dooooode, you can see that he is having heat related problems by the way he has the back of the lappy raised ever so slightly to help with the ventilation. It's soooo a 7811. :D
