    FOSE Judges Select the Innovative Gateway(R) 9415 Server for Being the
      Only 1U Rack-Mount in the Category That Offers RAID 5 Capabilities
                       With Redundant Power for $1,199

    IRVINE, Calif., April 14 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Judges at the recently
concluded FOSE government technology trade show awarded Gateway's (NYSE: GTW)
server line with a 'Best of FOSE' award for the recently introduced Gateway
9415 server.
    Judges from Government Computer News and Washington Technology selected
the 9415 from more than 200 products, including servers from competitors such
as Dell, HP and IBM.  The Gateway 9415 server is unique to the market as the
only 1U rack-mount with redundant power, up to 600GB(1) of RAID 5 protected
data storage and the latest Intel(TM) EM64T Xeon(R) CPUs.  This enables
government agencies and organizations to achieve maximum uptime and protect
key data over time.
    "Government customers want products that are secure, manageable, and solve
problems," said Tom Temin, editor-in-chief of Government Computer News.  "This
year's crop of winners showed not just some remarkable innovation, but also a
keen sense of the kinds of problems customers are trying to solve."
    According to IDC's 2004 Q4 year-over-year U.S. figures, Gateway currently
holds the fifth position in server units shipped in the volume x86 server
category.  The company has made in-roads in the last three months to refresh
its server line with new powerful, high-density solutions designed to meet a
broad spectrum of business, education and government organizations' workgroup
and departmental computing needs.  Equipped with the latest Intel chipsets,
the Gateway server line offers the ideal blend of value and performance
throughout the rack-mount and tower configurations.
    "We are honored that FOSE judges recognized the ability of the Gateway
9415 to bring a reliable, performance oriented server to the market," said Tim
Diefenthaler, senior director of server product marketing at Gateway.  "The
9415 was designed with feedback from our customers and partners to directly
address back office demands for a dense highly available solution that
consistently executes mission-critical applications."
