Gateway FPD2485W 24" Widescreen LCD

Introduction

Gateway has been quiet lately. We see commercials for Dell on TV all the time, yet Gateway has been shipping computers almost as long as Dell. Gateway was a well known brand back in the dot-com boom, and their distinctive cow-boxes and the Gateway 2000 moniker (which of course now sounds lame since its 2007, though it sure did sound cool back in the 90s).

Gateway is new to the high-end LCD business. While they’ve been selling LCDs with their computers for a while, only recently have they been selling the larger displays under their own name.

Gateway’s FPD2485W 24” LCD monitor is on the review block today, so we’ll see just how well it performs. We’ve seen 22” and 24” monitors from other manufacturers, and now it’s the newbie’s turn. Will it excel or just be another player in the LCD biz? Will the monitor be a worthy way to spend your tax refund from Uncle Sam? Read on to find out.
