Acer Ferrari 1100

 

The second-generation Acer Ferrari 1100 now comes with a built-in optical drive.

Built-in optical drive. Snazzy Ferrari design. Carbon fiber lid. 4GB RAM.

Nightmarishly rigid mouse buttons. Heavy compared with the competition. Expensive for an Acer laptop.

Acer Ferrari 1100

Cool Ferrari styling will appeal to some; solid build quality will appeal to all; large hard drive and 4GB of RAM help justify high price; strong Photoshop performance; fingerprint reader; comfortable keyboard and trackpad; slot-loading DVD burner and...

Mediocre multitasking performance; disappointing battery life; weak speakers.

The Acer Ferrari 1100 is a stylish, full-featured ultraportable laptop, but its disappointing battery life won't sustain users who spend a lot of time away from the outlet.

While Ferrari fans are going to want to splurge for the luxury of a true Ferrari sponsored notebook, unlike the cars we can't justify the cost for the performance. The feature-set isn't bad and will get you by if you've got to have the Ferrari name,...

Dolby Surround Sound with SPDIF output, VoIP phone and Bluetooth mouse, solid build, Ferrari branding

Poor performer, price

Does the prancing horse add a little mystique to Acer's latest 12.1in notebook offering?

Battery life is significantly better, but other updates to Acer's Ferrari ultraportable range fail to impress.

Acer Ferrari 1100 review

 

Acer's 12.1in Ferrari 1100 is essentially an upgrade to the Ferrari 1000. It comes with one of AMD's latest Turion 64 X2 processors and is the first laptop we've seen to include 4GB of RAM and the 64-bit version of Windows Vista Ultimate edition.

Acer Ferrari 1100 review

 

As you might expect from its name, the Acer Ferrari 1100, proudly trumpets Acer's association with the Italian car maker, with the famous rearing horse badge on the lid, and a bright red F1 car as the default desktop wallpaper.

The Acer Ferrari 1100 delivers on supercar-style price, but sadly not on performance. If money isn't tight and you want a reliable, fully featured business laptop with a generous software bundle, look no further. But you don't get much bang for our...

Acer Ferrari 1100

 

Acer's Ferrari is nice to use, but the exclusivity and inflated price feels manufactured, not earned.

Attractive looks ; Fast CPU ; Bluetooth mouse, VoIP phone, leather pouch ; Three-year return to base warranty

Small battery life for an ultra-portable ; Speakers aren't worth the Dolby logo ; No digital video out ; Expensive

The Ferrari 1100's biggest problem is its price, and its perceived collector value. If you're willing to go one-inch larger, Dell's XPS M1330 does pretty much everything faster for close to half the price, and is lighter to boot. The thing you've got...
