They're small, and as far as I can tell, one of the least popular computer companies. It's true. So I doubt Microsoft would want to touch them at all. ]]>Oct 9th 2007 7:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/09/official-acer-to-acquire-gateway-to-acquire-packard-bell/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/09/official-acer-to-acquire-gateway-to-acquire-packard-bell/but then again, gateways been on the redux for the last decade or so.]]>Oct 9th 2007 2:34AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/09/official-acer-to-acquire-gateway-to-acquire-packard-bell/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/09/official-acer-to-acquire-gateway-to-acquire-packard-bell/Oct 9th 2007 2:46AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/09/official-acer-to-acquire-gateway-to-acquire-packard-bell/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/09/official-acer-to-acquire-gateway-to-acquire-packard-bell/
Now that it has become Acer takes Gateway; I think that Gateway still has enough of a name and reputation for Acer to piggyback on it to get a good hold in the US market.]]>Oct 9th 2007 2:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/09/official-acer-to-acquire-gateway-to-acquire-packard-bell/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/09/official-acer-to-acquire-gateway-to-acquire-packard-bell/Oct 9th 2007 4:05AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/09/official-acer-to-acquire-gateway-to-acquire-packard-bell/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/09/official-acer-to-acquire-gateway-to-acquire-packard-bell/Oct 9th 2007 3:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/09/official-acer-to-acquire-gateway-to-acquire-packard-bell/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/09/official-acer-to-acquire-gateway-to-acquire-packard-bell/Oct 9th 2007 3:04AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/09/official-acer-to-acquire-gateway-to-acquire-packard-bell/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/09/official-acer-to-acquire-gateway-to-acquire-packard-bell/Oct 9th 2007 3:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/09/official-acer-to-acquire-gateway-to-acquire-packard-bell/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/09/official-acer-to-acquire-gateway-to-acquire-packard-bell/Oct 9th 2007 4:47AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/09/official-acer-to-acquire-gateway-to-acquire-packard-bell/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/09/official-acer-to-acquire-gateway-to-acquire-packard-bell/
Btw Acer is more of a DELL/Gateway wannabe ,
low cost/high value and subpar quality on the low end notebooks .

I don't see why they need Gateway other then to get into the US market
which they can do better by pushing the new Gemstones more aggresively
and introducing them to consumers as a first wave .]]>Oct 9th 2007 8:30AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/09/official-acer-to-acquire-gateway-to-acquire-packard-bell/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/09/official-acer-to-acquire-gateway-to-acquire-packard-bell/
