Jdavid,

Thank you for your polite conversation.
I think sometimes people get caught up in pc v’s apple which is a shame.
Steve Jobs once said, for Apple to be successful, it does not have to beat Microsoft and i think this has always been true in how they make and price their goods. The Acer laptop will be deemed successful on whether it integrates well with windows 8 and whether windows 8 is any good. A company can make it’s laptop cover as many areas as possible but that wont necessarily make it good. When apple settled on the grey
finish and had success with macbook/air i did notice that makers of windows laptops started producing a fair amount of grey finish machines.
The Air’s overall shape and the keyboard/touchpad layout is very distinctive and looking at the Acer, it’s very close.
For myself my macbook air runs flawlessly and the money i paid for it has been a worthy investment.
People say that the air is expensive but it’s not really if you consider that ultrabooks are coming in at about the same or more in most cases so it’s always going to be down to the individuals taste. I have spent many years using windows and i got the chance through a friend to use a mac mini for 3 weeks and i have mainly switched to mac now as the performance of osx matched with apple’s hardware for me makes using a computer a whole lot more enjoyable.
I believe Apple’s success with it’s hardware has made other company’s look at the situation and as with all success story’s, others look to take ideas from it and include it in their own.
The designer mentioning it looked a bit like an air was not criticizing but fairly giving a personal opinion and i just find it amusing that people got so defensive.

Gaz:
Maybe it’s because people are tired of hearing that criticism of any ultrabook is a rip off, as though Macintosh invented the wheel or something. The design is distinctive with the white and glass casing. So the only “rip off” is the dimensions. That’s ridiculous. I’m not sure how I’d use the touchscreen yet, but I’m sure I’ll appreciate it for certain things. You hold the laptop length-wise like a book in your hands and read/highlight text or watch media.

My only beef is that the keyboard should be bigger and more user friendly with the touchpad smaller. If you have a touchscreen, why such a big touchpad?

Guys, i am really shocked at your immaturity regarding Deodorant’s comment about the design.
If your truthful then you know that this laptop has gone as close as it can to looking like a mac Air without infringing patents. The machine looks nice as it is but in design terms it is a bit of a cheap copy lets be honest.
And a touch display on a laptop?….that’s a gimmick, not a great idea.
Be honest instead of attacking someone for making a correct observation…he was not saying the machine is crap.

…I for one, prefer monochromatic color options for a laptop: white, grey or black. I am happy with how it looks. To be honest, I prefer this laptop to a Macbook Air. Sure, it’s thin, has a backlit keyboard and a screen, but it doesn’t mean they were trying to make it look like a cheap knock-off. I bet they were trying (and successfully) to come up with something better than the Air and I personally think they succeeded.

I am also a graphic designer and I also pick up on similarities between products. But that doesn’t mean I automatically classify the newer thing as a cheap knock-off. I’d give it a chance.

Well put. Acer is number 1 or number 2 in the world of PC manufacturers isn’t it?

These devices will sell like hot cakes.

Apple is going to start getting a little less “special”

They will still sell oodles of their overpriced stuff but now the playing ground is beginning to level out and people will question the cost differential and benefits as there is a real alternative.

It will be interesting to see how it hits Apples figures as I am sure this sort of move will not allow them to grow as astronimically as they have to date.
