Acer’s new TravelMate, touts docking capabilities

With CES less than a week over, the tech world still seems to be pushing releases. Maybe in response to the poor holiday sales the industry saw, maybe not. But one thing is for sure, Acer’s new TravelMates hit the streets with some strong features for both the average home user as well as the business user.

Acer’s new TravelMate 6593 and TravelMate 6493 have a large variety of options available. Both come with Intel Centrino 2 with vPro technology as well as a modest integrated Intel 3D graphics accelerator. Additionally, the TravelMate 6493 has a 14.1-inch screen while the TravelMate 6593 has a 15.1-inch screen. Both offer the Acer GridVista for displaying up to 8 display windows on one screen simultaneously.
