Again, the Taiwanese company's CEO, JT Wang has confirmed its commitment to the new Windows strategy, but again reaffirmed that Surface will do more harm than good to the interests of Microsoft in the PC ecosystem / tablets.
Wang also claims to be more optimistic President involved in this adventure (the rest is silent), and Acer has come to be concerned, since it is difficult to understand the new rules of the game from Microsoft, which could play with aggressive pricing.

But these declarations, the CEO of Acer wants to send a message to Microsoft: if much lower price, others can not compete, and Windows 8 will not be an interesting platform.
