Acer Australia has announced that its new range of Intel Core 2 Duo laptops will soon be available. The new range includes a Travelmate with Blu-ray DVD. Acer says it's bringing the laptops to market mid-month while its desktop buyers will have to wait until next month to get their hands on Core 2 Duo machines. "Intel has clearly raised the bar with the Core 2 Duo Processor and Acer is ready to get this technology into the hands of consumers. With our local production plant in Australia, we can quickly and efficiently give our customers what they want," said Lindsay Tobin, Product Business Manager, Mobile, Acer. "The Blu-ray enabled notebook will bring next-generation HD technology to our range. The model also makes us a unique vendor in that we offer customers notebooks with both Blu-ray technology and HD-DVD. We are all about giving our customers choice when it comes to their computing requirements. "With these latest innovations we have really set a new standard. Acer, along with our technology partners can now offer an incredible leap in computing performance that opens up the options for digital entertainment, mobility and business," he said.
