Advantages: Small and smart, HDMI port, GPU chip, 160GB HDD, handles HD media output and has an eSATA port Disadvantages: Low on RAM and processing power for a Vita PC, extremely wobbly stand and no optical drive
Have Acer started down the better path with the Acer Aspire REVO R3600? Well that may just be exactly what they have done. Its good looking fast has a big hard drive, a GPU and runs VISTA rather than XP.
The good stuff.
The Acer REVO is another one of these net top PC?s albeit a little different.
First off it can handle allot more than just net browsing and word-processing, which is all its pre-deceases could handle. This is due to its Nvidia GeForce 9400M graphics. Having this means that where as previously net top PC?s have just been for net browsing and a little light word processing, you can now start to venture into the media world,
The Acer REVO can handle HD media without any major hiccups and also comes with a HDMI port for instant connection to your living room HDTV making it one of the first net top media PC?s, and this ...
Advantages: good graphics, HDMI, energy saving, compact design Disadvantages: slow processor
Bought this Acer Aspire Revo last week, in my opinion it looks great and not bad for its price. It is a space-saving PC, it has a very good graphics, and saves a lot of energy due to its low-power Intel Atom 230 processor. Designed to perform as an ideal infotainment solution for streaming movies, TV shows, music and other on-line media, and since it is a compact design we sometimes use it in the living room to watch HD movies, very handy to carry around. The only thing on it for now is that the processor is a bit slow using the Vista, which is already supplied when bought from the shop. Actually got it from PC world for £249.97 which includes an upgrade offer of windows7, which will be sent separately this October when it is released. They said using the windows 7 should make it faster and smoother, which I will soon find out. This is ...
Advantages: Lightweight, easy to use Disadvantages: Not very good looking and quite big
After my Palm m100 packed up, I nicked my husbands abandoned Psion Revo to use as he was given the new Ipaq from work.
At first glance, it’s not very attractive and compact compared to the palm series so I was not used to carrying it around at first but it was better than having to pay £100+ for a new one as this one was still in perfect working condition (after my husband had used it for 4 years). He bought this because it was a special staff deal at work, £100 when it was retailing for £250. I cannot tell you the current price as I can’t seem to find a store that sells it now but if they did, I wouldn’t imagine it will be more than £80 as they do have an upgraded version now.
Let’s get the boring bits out the way first (this is taken from the handbook):
