Acer thinks the world needs a $1,100 Android desktop computer

Although PC OEMs as a whole did poorly last year, Acer seems to have been hit harder than most. According to numbers released by IDC last fall, Acer saw its PC shipments decline by a stunning 34.5% year-over-year while the rest of the PC industry saw its shipments decline by a much more modest 7.6%. After the collapse of its Windows-based PC business, Acer is now trying to revive its fortunes by thinking outside the box… as in way, way, way outside the box. Acer announced on Friday that it is launching the Acer TA272 HUL, an all-in-one desktop computer that features a 27-inch display with a resolution of 2560 x 1440 pixels, runs on Android 4.2 Jelly Bean and that costs $1,099.
