Acer Computer's Senior Product Manager for Australia, Henry Lee said, "Designed to make your pulse race, the Ferrari 1100 has been built to cater for the elite market. The Ferrari 1100 is a premium notebook, one that is exclusive and unique. Ferrari has very high standards in what they expect of an IT vendor and for Acer to be able to badge its notebook with the Ferrari branding; Acer must be able to synchronise with what the Ferrari brand stands for in terms of exclusivity, style, speed, execution and power. Since 2007 Acer has really begun focusing on its brand image in the market. Progressively we are moving into the premium market and introducing products that fit this category. Ferrari 1100 is one of them."
