For starters its a gateway,
2nd I dont like the multimedia PC's [the windows Media edition crap] I'd rather pay more and get a Buiness series computer and add what I want. I personally like the HP/CPQ PC's and add the sound card, hot vid card, etc etc . Usually there more reliable.
However, if someone points you to Dell or this, get this, Dell is far worse, any one whos done IT longer then a day will tell you that.

Thanks. Another thing, do I need 2GB of RAM? I like to have a lot of programs up at once, and will play lots of games on it, but I think this may be excessive.

Games like WOW are already being noted to make very good use of 2 gigs, and supposedly it's not alone. This will continue to be the trend.
I like to keep multiple things going on all the time too, and find even web browsing can eat up a ton of RAM very quickly. I also like to play games, especially RTS's, which notoriously devour RAM. I'm sure the upcoming one I'm super interested in, Supreme Commander, will do so. I think you'll do well by getting 2 gigs of RAM if you're a gamer. So much so that if you don't buy it now, you might just buy it later anyway when you get a game you find scrolling slowly, stuttering, or freezing or slowing down at all.
My next computer will definitely be beefed up with 2 gigs
