it’s ok viewing TV show DVD,Sat,Cable.[here come the bad comment] but for PC related viewing web sufing mainly andt using just the S video out on the ati card is be going to be dissapointed blurry text and icon. can’t blame gateway here this is still a fantasy for all the video card manufacrure’s out there!.using a regular tv set as a monitor.the 901x do have vga out both analog and DVI. and a TV set with these input is a must if you want to surf from your sofa costing $1000’s. for such TV/Monitor.and they is no legacy ports too,no PS/2 connector for ketbroad and mouse.better hope the supplied wireless keybroad and mouse dosn’t break.you can’t use your own keybroad/mouse on this.the mouse is also wireless but you must it on a flat surface I used a big and wide hardbook with a mousepad on top.no serial ports,no parallel ports for your printers!..[now for the good comment]it’s a great stand alone PVR CD/DVD players.also the fast videocard and CPU is also great for game playing.if I have the right TV/ monitor this 901x would probaly replace my’s old PC.for just about everything related to TV/Web surfing.as a normal PC setup with a VGA monitor I rate this 901x a 9. for PC performance. and using as in a regular TV setup DVD/SAT/Cable viewing I rate this a 8.so overall I rate this a 7….
