Acer is currently in a quest to become more like Apple. A fool’s affair, in my humble opinion. That’s like some random animation company — Dreamworks works well here — trying to become Pixar. There can only be one Pixar and there can only be one Apple. (thankfully) But I’m just a lowly blogger. What do I know. So instead of staying the course and competing against HP, Dell, and all the other beige box makers in the consumer and enterprise market, they’re changing course and chasing Apple’s tail. And so they have a new logo. It’s the one pictured above that happens to look a lot like the previous generation — just a bit more Apple-ish if Apple used diarrhea green and a sloppy typeface.
