Acer Aspire One 532G Netbook Boasts NVIDIA ION Dedicated Graphics

If you’re shopping around for a new netbook, you might want to check out the upcoming Acer Aspire One 532G, which will start shipping by the end of Q1 2010. This 10.1-inch netbook is touted as the world’s first netbook to be powered by NVIDIA’s next-generation ION graphics acceleration, which is powerful enough to playback content at 720p, or even output the video to a high-def LCD TV at 1080p resolution. Aside from its performance claims, the 532G also uses NVIDIA’s Optimus Technology to automatically switch between the ION GPU and the more conservative integrated graphics, allowing you to stretch your battery life when needed, achieving its claims of up to 10 hours of usage on a single charge. Features of the Acer Aspire One 532G include:

• Intel Atom N450 platform
• Next-generation NVIDIA ION GPU
• 10.1-inch high-def LCD display
• 1080p video playback to external monitors
