Acer to acquire Gateway: so long cow spots?
By admin | August 27, 2007
– the third largest PC company globally — just announced a definitive agreement to acquire . The acquisition has been approved unanimously by both boards and is expected to close by December 2007. You know, following the usual international, anti-trust approvals. Sure seems like a win-win what with (but still PC maker in the US) while finally giving Acer a dominant position in the Americas to match their aggressive growth in Europe and Asia. From the looks of the press release, it would appear that the Gateway (and ) brands will continue under Acer’s new “multi-branded company.” Fine, but could we now get rid of the cow spots, please? It’s not 1985 anymore.
