Acer Ferrari 1100

Love supercars? Love laptops? Let us introduce you to the Acer Ferrari 1100. A spacious hard drive and healthy portion of RAM help to make up its strengths. While this thin-and-light's styling might not appeal to everyone, Formula One fans will certainly be in heaven

Acer Aspire 8920G preview

The Acer Aspire 8920G is a very promising machine, and one which may set standards in years to come. Coming in four versions, the desktop replacement has a full keyboard and a marvellous 18.4-inch display, mainly because it has a true 16:9, 1080p resolution

Acer TravelMate 8215WLMi

This is a high-powered media-centric laptop with a heavy-duty 2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor and that ultimate AV accessory -- a Blu-ray Disc drive, which lets you watch high-definition movies. This hi-def add-on is an extra £300, however -- is it worth it?

Acer Ferrari 5000

This is a premium laptop with an AMD (also a Ferrari sponsor) processor -- the Ferrari brand pushes the performance angle, which is a useful excuse to push up the price. That demands a high specification, so Acer has loaded it with features, including a high-resolution display, loads of memory and decent graphics

Acer TravelMate 3022WTMi

With the ultraportable TravelMate 3020 series, Acer has let its hair down and come up with a striking white system. This Core Duo-based laptop is a good performer and has a neat built-in digital camera. However, we'd prefer an integrated optical drive (even at the expense of a little extra weight)

Acer Aspire 9802WKMi

It's too large to be considered a traditional laptop, and it lacks the upgradeability of a desktop PC. However, like the well-received M2010, the Aspire 9802WKMi does have a place. It should appeal to users who want a Media Center computer with a large screen, plenty of power and moderate portability

Acer Travelmate 8204WLMi

We're not joking. Acer has sped this Core Duo laptop to market, and it's the real thing: portable, with excellent battery life and it's blisteringly quick. It may not be the epitome of style, and dedicated gaming laptops may have better graphics cards, but for under £2,000, this is a fantastic bargain

Acer Ferrari 4000

Michael Schumacher has one of these -- but only because some oily Acer PR gave it to him. It's sitting at the bottom of his wardrobe because its performance is a long way shy of his exacting Teutonic standards... we imagine.
