I'm pretty sure my wife's Gateway is actually an Acer with a Gateway label on it.

One of the (perhaps silly) reasons people purchased Gateways from the Country "store" (instead of phone/online) is because when customers completed a Gateway order, they would walk out with a sealed cow-print cardboard box. Inside was a thank you note, a Gateway mug, a squeezy cow and a Gateway pen. I handed out thousands of these boxes over the years.

When the store closed, I had a opportunity to take home a dozen or so of these sealed boxes. But I didn't. Today they're probably worth $50 - $100 each.
