The Ferrari 1100 from Acer

THE 1100 is the latest Ferrari-themed notebook from Acer and I have to say that it hits all the right gears from a design standpoint. While it eschews the famous scarlet Ferrari colour scheme for a more subdued black finish with gunmetal silver trimmings, there’s no mistaking the iconic prancing horse logo that is displayed firmly in the centre of the lid.

The Ferrari 1100 is encased in a carbon fibre chassis with a racing check pattern on the lid which is also extended to the touchpad.
