Default Acer unveil new Ferrari notebook

for anyone looking for a new notebook who doesn't want an apple I thought this was pretty cool and nice looking as well. I think it would be a great christmas gift for a car enthusiast


The somewhat odd tie-up between laptops and supercars has taken another step forward with Acer's latest Ferrari One Notebook released just in time for the holiday season.
This time around the package is an 11.6-inch notebook PC utilizing the same exquisite details and performance principles celebrated by Scudetto Ferrari, which Acer is also a sponsor of.
Power comes from an AMD Athlon 64 X2 dual-core processor running at 1.8 Ghz and it runs on Windows 7 Home Premium. It comes standard with 4 GB of memory, an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3200 graphics card, a 250 GB hard drive and twin built-in speakers.
The notebook should get about five hours of battery life out of its six-cell lithium-ion battery, and it weighs in at 3.3 pounds.
Despite its generous equipment and the Italian style, pricing for Acer’s Ferrari One Notebook comes in at a reasonable $599.99. The unit is on sale now and comes with a one-year limited warranty.

This actually looks legit. I'm not too familiar with the Acer series, but it looks decent, especially with the rosso and Ferrari emblem.

I am an apple man myself. Mac Book Pro for me. They are awesome by the way. Try one and you will never look back, but the Ferrari Acer looks cooler

I still think for 599 its a deal. Its probably 100 dollars over priced but for a red ferrari shell its a steal at 100 over the standard.
