Acer has announced the launch of its new Aspire C Series, a family of all-in-one desktop PCs, offering sleek design and a choice of three operating systems.
Along with Windows 10 Home, buyers are also offered the option of having FreeDOS or Linpus Simple Linux pre-installed on their machine.
The Aspire C is available with either a 21.5- or 23.8-inch display, each with Full HD (1920x1080px) resolution, although neither model includes touch or stylus support, despite Acer"s promotional image showing a handwritten note on the screen. Both versions feature "super slim bezels" around the display area, while the overall form factor is pretty sleek too. The upper portion of the Aspire C is just 8mm thick - thinner than many smartphones.
Various configurations of each model are available, with the following key specs:
- Up to Intel Core i3 (6th-generation / "Skylake") processors
- Up to 8GB DDR4 RAM
- Up to 1TB 5400rpm hard drives
- 1MP webcam
- Bluetooth 4.0 LE
- 802.11ac Wi-Fi
- 2 x USB 3.0
- 2 x USB 2.0
- Integrated dual speakers
The Aspire C Series is now available to buy in the US, priced from $449.99 to $699.99.
