Acer to launch Aspire S7 Ultrabooks with Windows 8

Acer will release the new Aspire S7 Ultrabook series alongside Windows 8 on October 26 in North America.

Acer’s S7 comes in 3 models, one with a 11.6″ display, one 13.3″ display and another 13.3″ with an i7 processor over the i5 in the other models. The full specs are as follows:

$1,200:

• 11.6″ 1080p IPS monitor
• Intel Core i5-3317UB
• 128GB SSD
• 4GB of RAM
• Backlit Keyboard

The entry-level system ships with an aluminum lid while the two larger Ultrabooks use Gorilla Glass. Furthermore, all systems include a USB to Ethernet adapter, a micro-HDMI to VGA dongle and a convenient carrying case. And perhaps best of all – all systems use a speedy SSD RAID 0 configuration.
