Hello everyone, it’s been a while since I reviewed or wrote an article for you guys, but I’ve been asked to introduce the future of easy LAN connection – Bravura Easy Computer Sync™. This product allows you to transfer files directly from one PC to another using USB specification, in other words, you can now [...]

I’ve been dropping hints since August when I wrote the minisite web content and penned the first draft of the launch presentation but no-one got it. Acer this week launched what I boldly called “the world’s most exclusive netbook”, The Ferrari One. OK, I don’t have any official pictures (yet) but Trusted Reviews got to [...]

The idea of dedicating a section of TheAcerGuy to worthy causes has been sitting at the back of my mind for a while and as I mentioned in a previous post, Emily’s mail from Earthrace really snapped it into focus.

Just got wind of an internal mail about Wired’s Terminal Man – aka Brendan Ross.

Why oh why am I writing about this here?

I’m the one who comes up the with titles like puREDesire (the new corporate payoff for Packard Bell) time=weight3 (Timeline) .sign.of.the.time.

OK, just a quick update on the Reviews section. I’m really happy to announce that we’ve been given the green light to have AcerGuy readers review new Acer products. This is fantastic news as a) it leverages the real voices and opinions of the community we’ve built up over the past three years, b) it [...]

Just found this very nice review of the Aspire Timeline 4810T by Geekanoids. It should answer a lot of your questions. This is great, but I’m still wondering when one of The Acer Guy readers will send me their own review though… Enjoy!

Not quite sure where this sits with marketing and trademarks but this is a long way from what I’m used to seeing. Acer Taiwan apparently have an ad running for the Acer Revo but they’ve decided to use a clip from Ice Age to show it. In the words of the Japanese synth-pop king, Yukihiro [...]
