Acer Plans A 16 lb. Notebook

Posted by timothy on from the good-exercise-at-least dept.

jagger writes "Well not exactly gigantic but at 16 pounds and sporting a 17-inch screen this thing is stretching the term portable. It also features a 3EGHz Pentium 4, 1GB of RAM, a 7200rpm 160gb hard disk, DVD-burner and the kitchen sink. ZDNet has a rundown of all of this beast's features." This sounds like a joke (or a typo), but the story says otherwise.

    Well, OK. This version may not succeed, but the NEXT version, available next year, will weigh half as much and cost half the price! It's going to be amazing!

    Now knowing that, please buy the current model so we can afford to develop version 2.
