So I’m cleaning out a house and found a brand new Gateway2k Pentium 4 computer. Someone opened the boxes but never took the computer out, its all still in the plastic and I don’t want to ruin the unboxing for someone that is into this. The computer is free to a good home in the Boston metro area to make your retro gaming dreams come true! Shoot me a message, first come, first served.

P4 Computer - Gateway 2000 model 510 - part number 2800434

17" TFT Monitor - Gateway FPD1730

Speakers - Boston Acoustics BA745

Edit: Found a taker, hopefully it goes to it’s forever home on Saturday!

Edit edit: its gone!

    Wow that’s a brand I’ve not heard of in a long time. Can remember when ours first arrived as a kid, I think maybe as an upgrade from an old Amiga.

      I got my first Gateway 2k Pentium pro in 1996 and upgraded from an Amiga 500 too! Wish I kept that computer but I did keep the CPU as a keepsake.

        Hah, I remember the Gateway box being so large I could get in it at the time. And being cow themed seemed quite odd, but that thing was a beast at the time. I do miss the old Amiga though too.

        Thanks for the little nostalgia trip! Well done on keeping some mementos. Hope the Gateway finds a good home to go to!
