I also recently bought a computer from Gateway 2000. I got the 20 Mghz 386
and had the same experiences as Bob in terms of phone calls and
delivery. I have not had any problems - yeah, the DOS manual is
condensed, but you probably should pick up a good book like MSDOS
Encyclopedia anyway.

The point is - Gateway does everything they say, and do it
when they say they will. There will probably be some problems, as
apparently they are growing by leaps and bounds.
