The Acer Guy is the nighttime alter-ego of Michael Walsh, a freelance copywriter, SEO consultant and all-round blog fanatic with a thing for the IT sector.

For the past 9 years, I have been the copywriter for Acer EMEA, working side by side with a really special group of marketing creatives, with the some-times daunting task of putting word and images to the thoughts and demands of senior management.

This blog is a way for me to overcome the physical, strategic and budgetary constraints of traditional marketing and share some of Acer’s expanding world, tell you more about its products, its people, its philosophies and whatever else I can legally (and ethically) lay my hands on. It’s also a place where you can rant, rave or ridicule Acer, although it’d be nicer if we limited it to the first two.

What it isn’t is an Acer service forum. That is unless someone volunteers for the job ;-) Acer has 8 call centres across the EMEA region and I do not want to open the ninth.

While a part of me is reluctant to do this, I have a legal obligation to protect Acer from any unintentional wrongdoing so I hope you will understand the following disclaimer:

Any opinions expressed in this blog and in any corresponding comments are the personal opinions of the original authors, not of Acer and do not necessarily reflect the views of Acer.
