You may or may not recall that a couple weeks ago, Acer’s ION-powered AspireRevo nettop showed up on Newegg.com for the low, low price of $199. While the machine featured some relatively-impressive specs (Atom N230 CPU, NVIDIA ION, XP Home, etc.), there’s now a new entrant to the AspireRevo line that bumps the CPU up to dual-core status, doubles the RAM, and adds Windows 7 Home Premium as well as a wireless connection. Of course, the price has gone up too. The Acer AspireRevo R3610-U9012 nettop features the following: Windows 7 Home Premium Intel Atom N330 dual-core CPU at 1.6GHz NVIDIA ION graphics 2GB of RAM 160GB hard drive Six USB ports HDMI/VGA outputs eSATA Card reader, B/G/N wireless, Gigabit Ethernet Wireless keyboard and mouse MSRP of $329.99 The press release states that the machine “is available in the U.S. via leading online technology retailers,” although seeing as how Windows 7 isn’t officially released until next Thursday, the term “available” is being used a bit loosely. Still not a bad system for the price, though.
