Because these gateway laptops have been on sale for the last few months and there are hundreds of threads about them. General consensus is they are cheap and you get what you pay for. Bad build quality, often times they just die and never turn back on. Terrible keyboard/touchpad, they run hot, slow, and loud.
They are throw-away e-waste. Only buy one as a spare for traveling, or for any situation where you don't care if it gets stolen or broken.

edit: well to be technical close to 4 years.

Greetings
The RAM on the GWNR71517 can not be upgraded because it is built into the mother board. If any additional help is required with our products, please reach out to us via chat on www.gatewayusa.
Thank you for choosing Gateway.
Its a bummer because running single channel RAM on this processor (APU) basically cuts it's gaming power in half.But again, for productivity, general use, it's fast and functional. Runs windows 11, boots in 5 seconds or less, good display, finger print reader, had metal backing on monitor side (underside is plastic I believe), and crisp display. The only "ding" I can give it is no backlit keyboard and no hardwired ethernet, but at this price point Im not complaining and Ethernet can be achieved with a $10 adapter. Anything comparable (except maybe limited stock BF bait) is significantly more.
*Edit* I see price went up again. Glad I grabbed some when I could.
