Jump Lists
New in Windows 7, Jump Lists take you right to the documents, pictures, songs, or websites you turn to each day. To open a Jump List, just right-click a program icon on the Windows 7 taskbar. (You'll also find them on the Start menu.) What you see in a Jump List depends entirely on the program. The Jump List for Internet Explorer 8 shows frequently-viewed websites. Windows Media Player 12 lists commonly-played tunes. Your Jump List missing a favorite? You can "pin" whatever files you like there. Jump Lists don't just show shortcuts to files. Sometimes they also provide quick access to commands for things like composing new e‑mail messages or playing music.

Improved Windows Taskbar
In Windows 7 you can "pin" favorite programs anywhere on the taskbar for easy access. Not crazy about the icon lineup? Now you can rearrange them any way you like by clicking and dragging. Finally, there are new ways to preview windows. Point to a taskbar icon to see a thumbnail preview of open files or programs. Then, move your mouse over a thumbnail to preview the window full-screen. You can even close windows from the thumbnail previews--a big time saver.

Snap
Ever need to cut through a cluttered desktop and quickly focus on a single window? Just click a pane and give your mouse a shake. Every open window except that one instantly disappears. Jiggle again--and your windows are back.

This review is from: Gateway NV5937u 15.6-Inch HD Display Laptop (Cherry Red) (Personal Computers)

I received this computer a week ago. I decided on this one after much research. It comes with the New Intel Core i3 processor and 500GB hard drive as well as 4 GB memory. It has HD display and is equipped with Windows 7. There are 4 USB ports and an HDMI port. The only this I don't like is that the display (larger or smaller) only has 2 settings. Comparing it to a Dell Studio, it a better price point and has more features/memory. The web cam is also nice. I previously had an HP with a web cam and this one is much better. The multi gesture touch pad is interesting. It does work, but takes time to become adjusted to the techniques. I am really enjoying the computer. It's pretty fast and it has the memory I need for school/work. I would recommend this computer, but I am not an expert, just a consumer.

2.0 out of 5 stars Had problems with WiFi, March 28, 2010

This review is from: Gateway NV5936u 15.6-Inch HD Display Laptop (NightSky Black) (Personal Computers)

I am going to cut right to the main point. The WiFi on this laptop wouldn't stay connected. In one hour, it might go out 10 times. I returned the first one I got to Amazon and got a replacement of the same model. I had the exact same problem with both. Didn't matter if I was three feet from the WiFi router or across the house. Same issue all the time. If it wasn't for that, I would have kept the laptop. If you don't need WiFi, this might be be a fine choice, but in my opinion WiFi is crucial in a laptop. That's why I only gave it a two. This would get a four if not for the issue. Finally returned this and bought an HP - zero problems.

Pros:

I love the look of this laptop.

It has a beautiful LCD

I like the case design

Four USBs and HDMI

Lots of RAM and storage

Cons:

Couldn't get the laptop to stay connected via WiFi (both units had same problem)

Numpad makes it harder to hit the correct keys

I love this laptop! It has the hard drive capacity and processor strength of laptops that cost a LOT more. I haven't had any problems at ALL. It has run smoothly, and was very easy to set up and begin using. The ONLY thing that I'm not crazy about is that the number pad on the keyboard is smaller than most laptops that have a number pad. The number keys are smaller, and the decimal point is not at the bottom of the numbers, where it is SUPPOSED to be.... It is at the top. So, that confuses me and will take quite a bit of getting used to. Other than that, I have totally loved it! I would definitely recommend it to anyone!
