Acer’s Aspire Revo was announced recently and now you have an opportunity to lay down your cash for the little nettop.
The Revo is all detailed up on Play.com’s website.
There’s four versions to pick from all loaded with the 1.6GHz Intel Atom N230.
For £180 you get 1GB RAM, 8GB SSD, and Linux.
The £250 model ups the ante with 2GB RAM, 160GB HDD, and Windows Vista Home Premium.
If you add on another 50 notes you can have a 3D controller and ten games.
If you fork out £330 you can have the top package which is everything from the £300 bundle along with a wireless keyboard and mouse.
The Acer Revo has a listed release date of May 18th and remember – you can pay now for your preorder.

Acer has just launched a number of new machines and I’ve also grabbed a bunch of official pics to go with
So, what are they chucking our way?
Well, there’s an 11.6 inch Aspire One netbook, a new range of Aspire all-in-ones and the Aspire Revo nettop – yeah, I hear ya. Kinda reminiscent of Asus’s Eee range isn’t it?
The 11.6 inch Acer Aspire One has a WXGA resolution screen, the expected netbook specs of 160GB HDD, Atom chip, Wi-Fi and you also get Bluetooth, 3G and Dolby ProLogic Sound.
The Acer Aspire Revo nettop is quite a neat package. It also runs the 1.6GHz Atom processor but squeezes in up to 4 gigs of RAM, up to 250GB of hard drive and will handle 1080p video.
The new toy that’s grabbed my eye, however, is the Acer Aspire all-in-one.
Perhaps it’s because I have a soft-spot for the Asus Eee Top already – personally I think that the Acer version looks better.
You get a choice between 18.5″ and 24″ flavours for your all-in-ones.
The 18.5inch eMachine EZ1600, has a resolution of 720p, 160GB HDD, DVD drive and Wi-Fi.
Whereas the fabby Acer Aspire Z5600 AIO, with a 24 inch, full HD touchscreen, TV tuner, Blu-ray and 2TB of storage.
I’m still awaiting details of release dates and prices – but be sure in the knowledge that as soon as I hear anything it will appear on this site :0)
Check out the pics below while you wait.
