The Gateway computer company was started by a single man in Iowa in 1985 and has now grown into a billion dollar business. The company’s merger a few years ago with a Japanese company has made the Gateway brand part of the 3rd largest computer company in the world. The company is currently headquartered in Irvine, California.

The 500s Memory Series Desktops come standard with PC-133 speed, a maximum RAM M of 768 MB and an Intel 845 processor. The personal desktop computers also come standard with 3 memory banks and 3 sockets. This desktop unit is designed to work at optimal performance when the maximum amount of RAM is being used in each memory socket. If all of your memory banks are filled, you can replace the memory with a Gateway memory kit upgrade option. You can select your upgrade option from either the 256 MB OC 133 DIMM, the 128 MB PC-133 DIMM or the 64MB PC-133 DIMM. These kits range in price from $26-60USD.

The 500s Memory computer is an affordable option for any of your personal computing needs. They can be purchased at select retailers, online, over the phone or through their direct sales force. The company has been in business since 1985 and is located in Irvine, California. One of the most unique features of the company is their recycling program. If you bring in a used computer, you can receive a credit toward the purchase of your new computer when you buy a new Gateway product. There is a calculator on their website to help you to determine the approximate trade in value for your machine.
