What is a Convertible Notebook

The Gateway Convertible Notebook looks just like a conventional notebook. Except that it's not. It has a full-size keyboard and 14" widescreen display. And it can be used for all your regular computing needs—surfing the Internet, sending e-mails, word processing and so on. Except you can do more. Much more.

Secure your system and ensure your privacy. Your fingerprint is the most unique password you could ever have, and the UPEK® Biometric Fingerprint Reader makes it possible to maintain a unique and secure login without having to memorize numerous passwords. Plus, all you have to do to log into your system is place your finger over the biometric reader.

What makes our Convertible Notebook unique is how you can take the top down—literally. That's right! You can transform the display screen into its other convertible setting. Just swivel the screen 180 degrees and lay it flat over the keyboard for a more comfortable reading and writing experience. Now that's a convertible!

Unlike a touchscreen, our Convertible Notebook's display screen receives information from a special pen called a stylus. Now taking notes and drawing diagrams doesn't require a special program. And you can use the stylus as you would a mouse to do things like select, drag and open files.

Interacting directly with the screen rather than with a mouse and keyboard translates into an easier overall PC experience. There's no need to find a flat space to work on; you have the freedom to compute—and play—anywhere. You can even use your Convertible Notebook while standing or walking. It's perfect for people on the move, including on-the-go students.

Give yourself the edge by combining the power and mobility of a notebook with the flexibility and creativity of a convertible.
