Gateway has been working hard to align its business model with that of Acer, its parent company, by making the majority of its laptops affordable for the masses. If you stroll into any Best Buy or PC retailer, you'd be hard pressed to find a Gateway-branded laptop for over $1,000. The UC7807u ($800 street), a mainstream laptop, is priced accordingly, and Gateway paid close attention to its design: The barreled hinge, the brushed aluminum interior, and the lacquered top are all noteworthy. But along with the aesthetics, Gateway also piles on the weight: The UC7807u is one the heaviest 13-inch laptops on the market.
