Acer today presented the new TravelMate 8000 Timeline series, a line up of professional notebooks specifically designed for no-compromise performance, superior security and trouble-free manageability, while offering extended productivity thanks to 8+ of battery life.

While you are on the go, you can count on the TravelMate 8000 series for more than 8 hours of battery life – a whole working day - with just one charge, thanks to carefully chosen low energy consuming components such as the recently introduced Intel® ultra-low voltage (ULV) processors - the Intel® Core 2 Duo processor and Intel® Core 2 Solo processor ULV and LED-backlit displays. Thanks to the low energy consumption the innovative Intel ULV processors offer an incredibly long battery life and the same performance offered by the standard notebooks. These processors are creating a new business segment by offering the high performance we have come to expect from notebooks based Intel® technology within new ultra-thin packages, highly desirable for dynamic business usage models.
Batteries can last even longer if more durable and lower energy consuming Solid State Disks are chosen over traditional HDDs. In addition, you can decide when you need top performance or you want to save energy: the TravelMate 8000 notebooks come with the Acer PowerSmart key. Just tap on the PowerSmart key to enable Acer PowerSmart Management and apply advanced settings to extend battery life. Stay in control, save energy and extend your productivity with just one touch.

“With an Acer ultra-thin laptop powered by ultra-low voltage Intel® Core 2 Duo processor and Intel® Core 2 Solo processors, business users experience a balance of performance and energy consumption that is highly desirable for business users today", commented Tim Black, Business Manager Intel Corporation UK
