New box

I just got my new Gateway machine. It's the machine that I'll be switching to for Windows development in the office. It's got amazing specs. But I have to say that I have had a lot better "out of the box" experiences. With this machine it would start up, beep three times, and then stop. No display. No nothing. Except the beeps.

So I called Gateway and they had me reseat all of the bits; RAM, drives, cards, battery, etc. And that did the trick. But, damn, not such a great feeling of confidence right out of the gate.
