Acer Aspire Revo R3610 Desktop PC

Got to stay I'm suprised this was missed from the review list.

A revo has been reviewed before, but no dual core ones.

The specs are below, and a well know online retailer sells it for £240 (with Win 7) or £189 with Linux, so considerably cheaper than the Viewsonic.

Quick Specs:

Processor

Intel Atom Dual Core 330

NVIDIA Ion Chipset

Memory

2GB DDR2 800MHz

Configuration: 2 x 1GB

Expandable to 4GB

2 x soDIMM slot

Hard Drive

250GB SATA

Graphics

NVIDIA Ion - GeForce 9400 - up to 896MB

Audio

High Definition Audio Support

Networking

LAN: Gigabit Ethernet, Wake-on-LAN ready

WLAN: 802.11 b/g

No Modem

Thumb Up

Great to see, and looking very good

Defiantly alot faster than safari.

The zooming is abit different, but so much quicker, and i think given a few days better

The most promising part is that clearly opera has a andriod, and iphone presence (which no one else 'really' has in this way , and thus I can see them piling on updates aggressively into this.

Oh btw opera is my current favourite PC / Mac browser currently. 10.5 was a massive revolution, esp when you setup your email in it (Wish it had a calendar wignet tho...) Combining Opera sync, means all my bookmarks are up to date on the iphone also

Happy Days
