Youll Be Converted. Notebook to tablet in a snap.

You'll Be Converted—Notebook-to-tablet in a snap

"MVP." "A class act." "Ain't nothing like it." That's what the likes of IT Week, PCMag.com and Engadget had to say about Gateway's earlier convertible offerings, which were the first in the U.S. to offer 14-inch screens. And now the tablet is back, with the Gateway® C-143X and C-143XL Convertible Notebooks.


Powered by Genuine Windows Vista® Ultimate (32-bit) SP1 and an Intel® Core™2 Duo Processor1, the Gateway Convertible Notebook is loaded with standout features. Need to write onscreen? Want greater mobility? Wish your tablet could be powerful but also durable? Then you want one of these Gateway C Series laptops.

Take the Top Down

Summer or winter, you'll love the ability to take the top down—literally. You can transform the screen from display mode to tablet so easily. Just swivel the screen 180 degrees and lay it flat over the keyboard for an even more comfortable reading and writing experience. Now, that's a convertible!
Transform from a traditional notebook to tablet in seconds.


Write Right Onscreen

Write directly on the screen.Unlike a touchscreen, our Convertible Notebook's display works with a Wacom™ stylus. Jot notes, draw diagrams and work on presentations. And you'll love the freedom of using a stylus just as you would a mouse to do things like select, drag and open files. The easy-to-use pen gives you a more intrinsic experience because you're using pen strokes instead of finger strokes.


Make it Last

The Gateway C Series come with durability by design. Laptops can take a beating from constantly being on the road, but our Convertible Notebooks have a magnesium superstructure and display frame that make them solid. Even the alloy display swivel is anchored in magnesium. These machines are built to last. So choose your C-143X or C-143XL today!

Get the Edge

Intel Centrino TechnologyBoth the C-143X and C-143XL boast Intel® Centrino® Processor Technology1, which brings you an exceptional balance of processor, chipset and wireless that means blistering performance, longer battery life, high-definition digital entertainment and amazing connectivity. Plus, when you do go wired, the IEEE 1394 Firewire and Gigabit Ethernet is at the ready.


Want it all? The C-143XL also has a fingerprint reader for simple yet cutting-edge security, Bluetooth® for even greater wireless choice, and a 2.4GHz processor and 7200rpm hard drive for the fastest file access.


Play and Work Anywhere

Everything you need at your fingertips. No matter where you are.Interacting directly with the screen means that not can you lose the mouse—you can lose the keyboard, too, making operating a tablet an easier PC experience. Theres no need to find a flat space to work on—and no need to find a wire, thanks to integrated 802.11a/b/g wireless connectivity. A tablet experience means you can use your convertible notebook in a cafe, in school, even while standing or walking, making it perfect for on-the-go professionals and students.
