Acer claims the death of the netbook market is overstated:
Many have predicted the slow demise of netbooks due to the emergence of tablets, but Acer doesn't share that view. In fact, Forbes blogger Elizabeth Woyke got a rather catchy quotation about the subject from an Acer spokeswoman: "The death of netbooks is overstated. . . . We may not see the same explosive growth [in the category] as before, but the netbook price point is still killer."
