Acer's revealed it's new series "Aspire Ethos Notebooks" i.e. 18.4-inch 8943G sports a 1920 x 1080 resolution and a true 5.1 surround sound setup. Processor options range all the way up to the quad-core Core i7-820QM, which offers 8MB of built-in cache and a 1.73GHz clock speed that cranks all the way to 3.06GHz when required. Awesome! :)

ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5850 graphics and up to 1.28TB of storage (2x 640GB). The 5943G is a scaled down version, offering as it does 1366 x 768 resolution across a 15.6-inch display, a 2.1 internal speakers, and a merely adequate 640GB storage maximum. A 4,800mAh battery, which is a particularly a "desktop replacement."

Will update you with the pricing and the availability of the set.
