Acer Nornet Nettop

Acer is reportedly developing a nettop computer that will make use of NVIDIA’s Ion platform and will bundle a low power Intel Atom CPU with a high performing NVIDIA graphics chip.  What results should be a low profile, low power computer capable of handling modern video games and even 1080p video.

These nettop computers are sort of like netbookks without displays or keyboards.   From the picture, the Acer machine would actually be able to attach to the back of a standard LCD monitor.

No pricing or availability details yet, but we’ll have them as soon as they’re out.
