Gateway is a popular manufacturer of desktop personal computers that uses special tower cases for its computers that open differently from standard cases, which are simply screwed on from the back. Gateway cases have easy-release systems that often make it possible to open the case without using a screwdriver. How you open the case depends on what type of Gateway desktop you have. There are there common types of cases: the new Gateway midtower cases have a panel covering the disk drives, the microtower case is a smaller case without a gray accent panel on the top, and the older midtower cases are somewhat larger than the microtower case and have a gray accent on the top of the case.
