Acer Predator Aspire G7700

Aspire PREDATOR desktop offers an outstanding gaming experience for users who play games for the fun of facing impossible challenges and overcoming limits that would otherwise be insurmountable. The Predator G7700 is an original, aggressive chassis design which conceals the latest generation technologies. An overclocking top range processor, up to 8GB of DDR2 800/1066 memory and 3x NVIDIA GeForce 9800 GTX graphics cards kept in check by a liquid cooled core.


Exceptional Performance
For best gaming performance, the Aspire Predator G7700 offers NVIDIA nForce 780th SLI MCP chipset which is 3-way SLI capable while also supporting the last CPU generation. The n-Tune overclocking utility offers a simple process instead of the traditionally complex process of overclocking CPU, RAM and graphics cards so you do not need to restart the PC after each variation. In addition, a liquid cooling system that guarantees perfect system operation and stability without overheating, even after overclocking, without compromising maximum possible performance.

Superior Gaming Enhancements
Another Predator striking feature is the Acer Easy-swap Hard Drive solution which makes the four Serial ATA 3Gbit/s high capacity hard disks removable even when the PC is turned on and in use. This rapid access and replacement of hard disks transforms the new Acer Aspire PREDATOR into an easily expandable, scalable platform. RAID 0, 1, 5, 1+0 modes with NVIDIA MediaShield Storage technology guarantee the utmost data security in the event of disk failure.


Aggressive Design
The deep metallic copper coloured housing perfectly representing the power it encloses: the front of the body can be raised, accompanied by a world first optical bay mechanism to reveal a rewritable DVD and Blu-Ray reader. The easily accessed USB and audio ports on top combined with a Multi-card reader are combined by incredible light effects created by blue LEDs emitting from Predators face.

Acer Liquid

Introduction
The Android meter is ticking. Acer want a piece of the pie. We all add two and two together. Yesterday, Acer didn't know the first thing about phones (if you can say that for a household name in notebooks), today they're betting on two horses in the mobile OS race. After their neoTouch running on Windows Mobile 6.5, Acer decided to dip their toe into another kind of water - the free and open source world of Android. This time attention goes to the Liquid - the company's second Snapdragon powered device.
We have to admit we weren't as impressed as we wished by the neoTouch and its almost naked Windows Mobile OS. It was less the price and more the really strong competition that drew our attention away from it.

We're certain it's not how Acer planned it to be and their answer was immediate - the sexy Liquid powered by Android 1.6. Just like the neoTouch, a Snapdragon core is ticking inside the Liquid and does all it can to run the OS flawlessly despite the slightly lower clock rates.

Key features
Quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE support
3G with HSDPA 7.2 Mbps and HSUPA 2Mbps
Android OS v1.6 with Acer UI 3.0
3.5" capacitive touchscreen of WVGA resolution
Qualcomm Snapdragon 8250 768 MHz CPU, 256 MB RAM
5 megapixel autofocus camera with video recording
Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g and GPS receiver
Accelerometer sensor for auto-rotate and turn-to-mute
Digital compass
Standard miniUSB port for charging and data
Stereo Bluetooth (A2DP)
microSD card slot with support for up to 16GB cards (2GB one included)
Standard 3.5mm audio jack
Direct access to the official Android Market

Main disadvantages
Camera lacks flash or lens cover, has outdated features
No smart dialing, no voice dialing, no video calling
No web Flash support
Acer UI 3.0 offers only minor changes to the original interface
Somewhat limited 3rd party software availability
No DivX or XviD video support or a third-party application to play that
Poor MP4 playback performance - any videos over QVGA res are barely watchable
No proper file manager out of the box
No TV-out port
No FM radio

Both lists give us a sense of deja-vu. It was a similar case with the neoTouch, but this time the situation is a bit different. Some of the Liquid's weaknesses are inherent to the Android OS (especially its first iteration, the Donut). It's not that they won't count against, but it's at least fair to note most of those are not Acer's fault.

Anyway, the Liquid will be measured against the likes of HTC Magic, HTC Hero, Samsung Galaxy and Samsung Galaxy Spica and it sure has a few things to offer that they won't. WVGA resolution and sky-high processing speeds are enough of an edge against competitors. The excellent capacitive screen and all-round connectivity are perhaps no news for the Android species.
So, Acer are newcomers but they're keen to bring value. Let's see how their Android fits in that plan.

Ferrari One 200

A Ferrari is not just about speed. It is an expression of beauty, power, excitement and pleasure. A Ferrari exudes excellence from the original concept to the finished product, and the Ferrari One offers the same sensations down to the finest detail. Race to your destination with this attractive, less-than-1-inch-thin netbook that delivers superb performance!

Exclusive style
The Ferrari One proudly displays on its red cover the Scudetto Ferrari that has dominated Formula One since the very first race. This netbook delivers a special rear design that's easy to grab and carry, along with obliquely angled VGA and LAN ports for quick use. The interior is full of exquisite features and details such as metallic, red LED-lit buttons, a checkered palm rest finish, and smooth, elevated keys on the Acer FineTip keyboard.

Championship performance
At its heart, the Ferrari One is driven by a Second Generation AMD Ultrathin Platform with VISION technology, which balances high responsiveness and quick multitasking with extended battery life. And the ATI Radeon™ HD 3200 graphics solution and up to 4 GB DDR2 memory bring out the best from the pre-installed 64-bit Microsoft Windows® 7 operating system.

Passion for entertainment
First you see it: With an 11.6" HD Acer CineCrystal LED LCD display supporting 1366 x 768 resolution, the amazing image quality on the Ferrari One will make you look twice. And then you hear it: The built-in speakers are fine-tuned and deliver vibrant Third Generation Dolby® Home Theater®-enhanced surround sound.
