Cheap as chips for cash-strapped companies

ACER HAS LAUNCHED a 'business class' desktop which it will be peddling with a credit crunch-busting price tag of $399.
The Veriton X270 is based on Nvidia's 630i motherboard with Geforce 7100 integrated graphics and can handle a wide range of Intel CPUs, up to a Core 2 Duo.
There is up to 4GB of DDR2 memory, one PCI-Express x16, one PCI-Express x1 and two PCI slots, all low profile, an SATA hard drive with up to 500GB of space, a SuperMulti optical drive, 5.1-channel integrated audio, Gigabit LAN and... er, that's it.
It will ship with Windows Vista Business through Acer's reseller chain. µ

Sounds the same as their normal retail PCs. Nvidia 630i (ick). Manufactured by MSI. Only difference is the case and the price.
That's kind of a big difference. Not to mention this one will be available with whatever level of business support they offer (not that they are anywhere near the level of Tier 1 supplier in support).
finally something to combat dell that's business class.... we go through hundreds of optiplexes a year, be nice to see something else that can be comparable... now lets see how the service contracts are...
You know Dell would win...
Dont be so sure, 3 years ago who was Acer?
Who is Acer now?
Whats one thing that Acer does not have to deal with that Dell does? (US Government, now with all the commie pinko's in there Dell is hosed)
