  Computer maker Gateway has announced a major refresh of its notebook line, offering up a new entry in its popular FX line for gamers and computing enthusiasts. And all of the new notebooks ship with Windows Home Vista 64-bit Edition, so users will be able to leverage a full 4 GB of RAM and pending 64-bit applications.

  "Gateway’s new notebook lineup offers our customers stylish and unique designs paired with exceptional features and new capabilities," said Gateway’s senior manager of mobile products Todd Titera, in a statement. "These new models and the rest of the line illustrate our dedication to continually exceed our customers’ expectations for performance and value."
