Acer Bargain Laptops Include Blu-ray (PC World)

Of course, it didn't take Acer long to fire back with bargain deal of its own. Acer's new line of budget-friendly Aspires promise full-size performance, but in a netbook's price range. And a $749 all-purpose all-star that offers a Blu-ray drive. (link)
