If you’re part of the first camp, you may be excited to hear that Acer might just be working on a notebook so thin that it uses a frameless screen and touch keyboard, according to DigiTimes.

Report: Acer will launch an ultra-thin notebook this year
Posted on February 11, 2010 | No Comments
Let's not forget Acer's quest to overtake HP as the number 1 computer maker in the world. That's important to remember as the company is reportably getting into the ultra-thin notebook market this year along with making a Chrome OS netbook and ebook reader. 2010 will be Acer's year as the company lays outs its plans, which, surprisingly, doesn't include outing a iPad-ish tablet clone.
The Acer Timeline series lead the industry into the CULV game last year, but even those thin laptops look huge next to a MacBook Air or Dell Adamo XPS. So that brings us to right now as a report just surfaced claiming that sometime this year Acer will launch a true ultra-thin notebook based on Intel's next-gen Capella ULV processors that bring conventional notebook performance to ultra-thins.

HP widens the lead between number two computer maker, Acer
Posted on February 3, 2010 | No Comments
Uh-oh, Acer. You better get your stuff together. HP is embarrassing you. Maybe you shouldn't have gone all, "We's gonna be number 1 soon and 4ever!" Because now that HP shipped nearly 1.1 million more notebooks than you in the third quarter of 2009, you look kind of silly.

Why buy an Acer LCD when you can get the same monitor under the Integral name?
Posted on January 23, 2010 | No Comments
Well, well. Harman International's Lexicon brand isn't the only company in the business of scamming buyers by simply re-badging competitor's products. Integral, a Belarus brand for all we can figure out, apparently found it easier and cheaper to simply rebadge an Acer monitor and sell it under their name. After all, that practice isn't that uncommon as we just found out. But generally, the rebadging is a bit more complex and thorough than Integral's method. Check out what we mean below.
