In a bid to promote the Gateway brand in its homeland, Acer has announced ZX2300 all-in-one PC bearing the Gateway sticker. The PCs will take a dig at Eee Tops but with a larger screen sans the touchscreen interface. ZX2300 will sport an 18.5-inch screen with an aspect ratio of 16:9 and a resolution of 1366X768 pixels. The AIO will be powered by an AMD Athlon 2650e processor, 1GB RAM, 160GB HDD, onboard ATI X1200 graphics, USB ports, card reader, Wi-Fi, webcam and a 16X Lightscribe DVD burner.
Taiwanese users will be able to buy this for NT$17900 or roughly US$530.

I’ve been looking at different power supply units for my Acer model; it’s strange because the model it says my notebook requires is different from the model that came with the notebook, maybe I should get in contact with Acer to solve this issue. Anyway, I found your blog post very insightful.
