Gateway LT2005u (LT20) Netbook Review

On February 12, 2010, in Uncategorized, by admin


jrin.net reviews the Gateway lt2005u (LT20 series) 10" netbook (same as the lt2022u and lt2021u, or any other LT20 series netbook). Basically, it's on par with most other 10" netbooks, and for the most part, it's the same as the Acer Aspire One 10" ( the gateway has longer battery life) This was upgraded to 2gb ram and windows set for best performance Check out the full review at www.jrin.net

    the video is laggy because flash is rendered through the cpu and barely and gpu, so that crappy atom is only a single core and thats why netbooks ant the greatest for flash videos, but my netbook has a celeron duel core and can play standard without buffering, and hd usually without buffering, but nice vid

    so Acer own gateway? I thought it was the other way around, but i might be wrong.

    I have this netbook. I got it at Best Buy and paid around around $350. I’ve had it over 6 weeks or so. I recently purchased an external DVD to load Windows 7. Overall, I am very satisfied with the machine. It is lightweight with decent battery. I travel very often and it is a dream working with on the planes. I’m eagerly awaiting for Delta to initiate it’s system wide wi-fi which will really make netbooks the way to go

    @jrinco11
    hey Jrinco11,
    nice review. this netbook is very good.
    do you happen to know how to swap out the built in wifi card and replace it with another mini pcie wifi card. on the back of the netbook, there’s an empty space next to the ram section, under the microsoft coa. may i just put another mini wifi card? happy holiday.

  13. rseidman says:

    Great if you can comment on how to install Win7 and Gateway drivers from a WinXP original OS. Thanks.

  14. Rangerscott69 says:

    The battery on this will swap with the Acer D250′s series.

    I have the Acer D250-1156 and this gateway and they are the same since Acer owns gateway.

  19. jrinco11 says:

    it’s a netbook, not a laptop – it’s not supposed to have a built in optical drive

  20. Disneyclassics009 says:

  21. cartman7610 says:

    Just so you know the opening on the bottom to the right of the RAM opening is not the wireless, it is an open Mini PCIe slot!!
