All-in-One PC Featuring Advanced Multi-Touch Screen Technology and Windows 7
Resembling a sleek flat-panel TV, the glossy jet black Gateway One ZX Series offers an ultra modern, luxurious industrial design, which enhances the look of any room in the home. Small touches add to the system’s clean streamlined design, including an adjustable back stand, integrated speakers, silver and clear acrylic accents and illuminated feet and keyboard — which provide a beautiful ambient glow — and make this PC stand out from the rest.
Integrating both a traditional desktop tower and flat-panel display into one, the Gateway One Series gives consumers the best of both worlds; powerful performance in a stylish, space-saving design, so it can be proudly displayed in any location. In addition to a wireless keyboard and mouse, the One ZX Series includes a seamlessly integrated HD web cam and microphone, keeping the PC’s look and feel clean and elegant. In addition, the integrated high-definition stereo speaker system eliminates extra components and clutter.
The innovative industrial design is offered at a variety of price points and configurations. Both of the Gateway One ZX Series PCs offer a superior multi-touch screen experience and world class performance without the price premium typically associated with all-in-one PCs. The affordable 20-inch ZX4800 Series is ideal for students, while the powerful One ZX6800 Series is a no-compromise, high-performance configuration entirely suitable for serious gaming.
“The advanced functionality, ease-of-use and fun that Windows 7 and multi-touch technology brings to the all-in-one PC category makes it a great time to consider a One ZX Series desktop,” said Sawall. “Combined with the no-compromise performance, advanced features and affordability of our new line, it’s an ideal solution for students, families and media enthusiasts.”
Advanced Touch Screen Technology Ushers in Next Generation Computing
Leveraging the advanced touch capabilities of Windows 7 and multi-touch, the next generation of touch screen technology, the One ZX Series gives consumers a whole new way to interact with their digital data. Delivering a superior touch screen experience, multi-touch offers more gesture combinations than single touch screens; a finer, more accurate way to interface with the PC, and an experience that is fast, intuitive and fun to use. And for those needing to save even more space, the keyboard is now optional.
With multi-touch, consumers simply touch icons on the PC’s screen with just one or two fingertips to launch applications, movies, music, zoom in and out on photos and websites, resize windows and handwrite notes.
In addition, the unique Gateway TouchPortal, an intuitive interface that lies on the top of Windows 7, serves as the starting point for managing a suite of Gateway one-touch “gadgets” and Microsoft touch applications. Gateway’s TouchGadgets provide quick access to music, videos, photos, social media networks and more, and include:
- TouchMusic — create and move music, albums and playlists between multiple devices and applications to enjoy music when and where consumers want it.
- TouchPhoto — view, enjoy and share digital photos simply.
- TouchMediaShare — enjoy and share digital media such as video, create slideshows and easily store, share and upload it with a single touch.
- TouchFriends — make social networks easier to access and more intimate with one-touch access to Facebook and Flikr.
- TouchMemo — handy notepad lets customers jot down quick notes for themselves and others and leave on the “desktop” as a reminder.
In addition, the TouchPortal includes several third party applications optimized for Windows 7 multi-touch, including:
- Cyberlink YouCam 3.0 — enhances web chats; add flames to the background, put on funny hats, or change yourself into an Avatar
- WildTangent games — a suite of games that are operated by touch
- WIN 7 Touch Pack — a set of six multi-touch optimized casual games and applications. Games include: Microsoft Blackboard, Microsoft Garden Pond and Microsoft Rebound. Applications include: Microsoft Surface Globe – lets users browse the world and zoom in on any location on a virtual 3D earth; Microsoft Painter – a touch-based drawing tool; Microsoft Surface Collage – a touch-enabled background; and Microsoft Surface Lagoon – a touch interactive screensaver.
When users want to return to the familiar Windows 7 environment, they merely peel back the Gateway TouchPortal interface with a quick swipe of a finger.
Gateway One ZX6800 Series
The One ZX6800 Series is ideal for enhanced entertainment, graphic design, productivity applications, gaming, web surfing, digital TV and more.

Some models in the One ZX6800 Series offer a hybrid TV tuner and media center remote control, so families can also use the PC as a TV, watching and recording live television from any room in the house.
