The Ferrari 1000 is not just a notebook; it’s the physical realization of a dream of mobile excellence, born from the illustrious design partnership between Acer and Ferrari.

Acer and Ferrari combine with striking design contrasts in the Ferrari 1000: soft-touch against carbon-fiber, red against black, light against dark ? an attention-grabbing combination of extremes creating an extraordinary vision of perfection.

Sporting a fresh 12.1″ form factor compact enough to fit into any briefcase, the Ferrari 1000 barely registers at a mere 1.6 kg. This new, ultra-mobile aspect of Ferrari notebooks meets the demands of hardcore travelers.

An extraordinary cover is made from space-age carbon-fiber for superior rigidity, lightness and reliability. The cover also features a handy latchless design, accented by an anodized metal border that conveys a sense of high-tech sophistication. A unique weave pattern brings racing’s iconic checkered flag to mind and sports graded coloration, giving the Ferrari 1000’s cover a dramatic, shimmering aesthetic.
