Asus and Acer up the ante in luxury netbook market
Is the netbook market players at their wits’ end that they have to resort to luxury models in order to sell more units? Perhaps, as Asus and Acer are slated to roll out luxury netbooks sometime in the fourth quarter of the year, with the former prepping a 12.1-inch Lamborghini netbook known as the Eee PC VX6 (with a recently leaked manual), while the latter will take the prancing horse route with an 11.6-inch Ferrari model. Interestingly enough, both models will feature processors from opposing camps – the Eee PC VX6 will be powered by an Intel dual-core Atom CPU, while the Acer Ferrari netbook will run on an AMD Fusion processor.
