You're continually connected. You're always busy, always on the go. Yet the notebooks you've known just can't keep up. What you need is a revolutionary PC technology made to match your mobility—a thin & light "all-day" PC that gives you everything you need to keep going and nothing that'd slow you down.

Your answer: Acer's new all-day computing ("ADC"). Breaking the laptop mold, Acer's ADC technology combines extended battery life in an energy-efficient design that's also thin and light. And for a price that won't drain your pocketbook.

Being added to Acer's Timeline series is an 11.6" screen size. Made for those who place the ultimate value in mobility, the 11.6" Acer Aspire® Timeline is great for daily productivity tasks. Powered by the new Windows® 7 operating system and an advanced dual-core Intel® Pentium® ultra low voltage processor, this ultraportable notebook is sized so you can keep it with you all day—and our ADC technology means you can use it all day, too. Plus, the fashion-friendly 11.6" Acer Aspire® Timeline comes in a choice of colors: sapphire blue and diamond black.

Acer ADC notebooks have technologies that keep them cool
Your on-the-go lifestyle is all about time. Acer's revolutionary PowerSmart1 ADC advances, made possible by Intel® technologies2, starts with an Intel® ultra low voltage (ULV) processor that's precisely clocked to save power yet provide performance. Intel® Display Power Savings Technology reduces backlighting with minimal visual impact. Just tap the Acer PowerSmart key to engage these and other advanced settings to make your ADC notebook more energy efficient than a typical laptop. In fact, your productivity can be extended up to 8+ hours, based on benchmark testing by Principled Technologies.1 It's time you had more time.

Proven: 8+ Hours!
We commissioned noted technology assessment firm Principled Technologies to validate that our newest ADC notebooks—our Timeline Series—really do “go all day.” Read the results for our 13.3" Timeline; 14” Timeline (Intel® Pentium®) and 14" Timeline (Intel® Core™2 Solo); and 15.6” Timeline (PDF format).
Keeping It Cool
You admire power. And you admire cool: You don't want a laptop that heats up your lap. Because they use less power, the ULV chips in Acer's ADC models generate less warmth. And Intel's laminar wall jet technology—like the cooling technology of today's jet engines—uses louvered inlets to quietly jet cool air across the notebook's bottom, right where it's needed.

Plus, Acer's Energy Star® 5.0 compliant PowerSmart adapter stops charging when the battery is full and stops pulling juice if the adapter is left plugged in when you unhook your notebook. Now that's cool.		   Thin Is In
The next demand of the ADC revolution: thin and light. Your on-the-go life needs a notebook sized for mobility. Each Acer ADC model is less than 1" thin at its front, a fraction more at its rear. Despite all the cutting-edge technologies packed inside, Acer's first ADC lineup, our Aspire® Timeline Series, boasts the new 11.6" weighing a scant 3.08 lbs., a 13.3" at just 3.5 lbs., a 14.0" at 4.2 lbs. and a 15.6" at 5.3 lbs.

That's less than comparably sized notebooks—truly mobility at its best when you're going between classes, walking among offices, heading over to the coffeehouse or in the air to your next destination. You'll love the light.		   Everything Your Need
Power, cool and thin are great-as long as you also get the tech you need. And you do, starting with the innovative multi-gesture touchpad. Navigate web pages with a swirl. Zoom in and out of photos with a flick. Plus, on all models 13.3" and above, the touchpad locks with a single press.

The multi-gesture touchpad gives you fingertip control, and the touchpad lock (select models) prevents stray motions

With smart backup (13.3" and above), you get one-press backup, drive snapshot and smart restore. On all Timeline models, multiple USB ports, HDMI™ and Wi-Fi keep you hooked in, plenty of memory and a large hard drive keep you productive, and the Acer Crystal Eye HD webcam keeps you in touch.
