Acer hitting the US market

It's going to be tough for Acer to invade the US if the Euro
remains high or climbs higher. I personally prefer Dell and
HP products to Acer functionally speaking.

InternetPlay,

What's so newsworthy about it? That another PC vendor with Intel only policy ended up with huge losses, forced to sell?

I haven't seen it before. However, I am not sure if Channel guys would tell a journalist if they saw a threat from Lenovo.
Beyond that, they expect the same guy to run the same business just under another name. Short term, I would expect this as well. Medium and longer term, I am not sure.

I think any current assessment of the deal is premature per se. After looking at what Lenovo really does with the business for a year the picture will be shaping up for visibility.
