G Styled: Gateway ID49C08u - Fashion-Forward Notebook Inside and Out
August 23rd, 2010 by Jason Anderson (of G Style Magazine) 
I checked out the Gateway ID49C08u this week and it looked great! I must give real kudos to Gateway, as they have really been picking up their style game. I remember Gateway machines, especially laptops not be very good looking, but this is on a whole new level.
First the chrome silver cover lid looks very good, love the feel of it. And then much to my surprise, there wasn’t the generic black keyboard and palm rest inside. Nope Gateway continued the look on the inside on not just the palm rest, but on the keyboard as well. Nice touch Gateway!
And if that wasn’t enough, there is even a glowing trackpad as well. Looks like Gateway went all out on the style aspect. I really like this laptop; this is one sleek machine.

I’m all for discussing industrial design, but these G-Styled posts are inane, useless, and amateur. They mar what is otherwise an excellent web resource for laptop and smartphone reviews. I also made the mistake of clicking through to ‘G Style Magazine’, just to see if the material there was better. Alas, that’s a no.
