Acer Aspire 5100 Unveiled
Acer launches yet another AMD Turion 64 X2-powered notebook, but this time it’s part of the Aspire series. While the previous two Turion 64 X2 notebooks introduced by Acer were flashy (this probably deserves a Duh! given that their Acer Ferraris), the Aspire 5100 looks pretty much the average Acer notebook - both specs and design-wise.
Indeed, with only integrated graphics through an ATI(R) Radeon(R) Xpress 1100 and a 0.3 megapixel Acer Orbicam (its more powerful brethren sport the 1.3MP version), this 15.4″ notebook won’t be getting any wows for its features.
But with prices starting at US$899, Acer’s definitely going to try to make a case for it through your wallet.
P.S.: Yeah, specs-enthusiasts would probably have noticed that the 5100 is pretty much a non-flashy + lower-end clone of the Ferrari 5000.
