Acer Aspire 9504WSMi Notebook
Large widescreen laptops are hot these days and Acer certainly know this. That's why they're introducing the new Acer Aspire 9500 line of notebooks designed for multimedia applications.
The Aspire 9500 has the following features:
- Intel Pentium M or Celeron M processor
- up to 2GB of memory
- 17" WXGA widescreen CrystalBrite color TFT LCD
- ATI Mobility Radeon X700 graphics card
- Optional analog and digital TV tuner
- Weighs less than 8 lbs
- 8 cell battery with up to 3 hours of battery life
- WiFi and Bluetooth support
- 120GB HDD
With the Aspire 9500 line of notebooks, you can choose from Windows XP Home, Windows XP Professional, or Windows XP Media Center Edition. If I had a multimedia powerhouse system like the Aspire, I'd stick with the MCE OS and get a digital tuner also.
There are three new laptops as part of the 9500 line - the 9504WSMi, 9502WSMi, and the 9503EWSMi.
