Acer unveils 11.6-inch Aspire Timeline 1825PT

Acer has launched the new Aspire Timeline 1825PT netvertible. With that swiveling display and netbook heart, this Acer computer might be suffering from a bit of an identity crisis.

With its flexible design, the Intel Core 2-powered Aspire Timeline 1825PT can serve a number of different functions besides being a laptop, including acting as a notepad, presentation tool or even a digital photo frame.

Here's a look at what's actually inside this ultra-slim frame:
