Acer Introduces New Aspire 5750G Packed with New Performance-Enhancing Technology
Sydney, Australia 19 January 2011- The Aspire 5750G is part of a new line of Aspire notebooks geared for consumers who demand outstanding HD entertainment and smooth multitasking in a mobile form factor. Some features include the latest 2nd Generation Intel® Core™ Processor with turbo boost technology, and the capability of dynamic switching between Intel HD and Nvidia Optimus 540M discrete graphics controllers. Combined with Acer’s clear.fi home entertainment solution for sharing content in the home, and Blu-ray, the new Aspire 5750G is well equipped for digital applications.
Utilising the power of Intel’s 2nd Generation Core i processors, the Aspire 5750G notebook provides maximum CPU/GPU performance for amazing high-definition (HD) experiences and comes loaded with 4-6GB of memory. The hard drives offer up to 640GB of storage space for a large library of music, videos, images and games. The Aspire 5750G is one of the first to market with the new NVIDIA® GeForce® GT 540M graphics solution, which includes full DirectX 11 support along with NVIDIA Optimus™ technology, a hybrid graphics engine that intelligently optimizes a notebook to switch between UMA or discrete graphics, depending on the application’s needs.
Chris Osborne, Acer’s Senior Product Manager says “Optimus switchable graphics offers the end user real benefits that they can measure. They get Nvidia’s latest 3D graphics capabilities for smooth
DVD playback and game play when plugged in, and prolonged battery life when mobile thanks to Intel’s latest embedded HD graphics controller. What’s more, the switching is completely seamless with no interruption to the user and eliminates the need to
re-boot.”
The Aspire 5750G notebook series features visually appealing and practical designs. The notebooks are housed in a black, matte mesh casing, preventing smudges and scratches. With LED-backlit widescreen displays, the Aspire 57050G sports a 15.6” HD
display (1366 x 768 resolution), ideally suited for entertainment needs and outstanding visual experiences. A complete HD entertainment centre, the Aspire notebooks feature Dolby® Advanced Audio v2 virtual surround sound for an immersive audio experience,
along with an HDMI port for connecting to an HDTV or external display.
For easy communication needs, the Aspire 5750G notebook features clear.fi, Acer's digital home entertainment solution that automatically connects all Acer devices onto a home network – including a smartphone, notebook, desktop, HD media player and home storage. Clear.fi gathers media files from devices, then categorizes by media type, allowing easy access to all digital files.
This notebook also comes with integrated 802.11a/b/g/n Wi-Fi CERTIFIED wireless technology and gigabit ethernet to facilitate smooth and trouble-free Internet access. The Acer Crystal Eye 1.3 megapixel HD webcam enables high-quality video chats and VoIP with friends, family and work associates.

New Demands for Real-time Threat Management
Many organisations are evaluating a new security model based upon IT risk management best practices. This is a good idea, but not enough for today’s dynamic and malevolent threat landscape. To keep up with IT changes and external threats, large organisations need to embrace two new security practices: real-time risk management for day-to-day security adjustments and real-time threat management to detect and remediate sophisticated, stealthy, and damaging security breaches (i.e., advanced persistent threats, or APTs).

Deploying Flash in the Enterprise
Flash is quickly emerging as the preferred way to overcome the nagging performance limitations of hard disk drives. However, because flash comes at a significant price premium, outright replacement of HDDs with flash only makes sense in situations in which capacity requirements are relatively small and performance requirements are high. Learn how deployment approaches-including hybrid storage arrays, server flash, and all-flash arrays-that combine the performance of flash with the capacity of HDDs can be cost effective for a broad range of performance requirements.
