Acer Revo 70

 

Compact, Excellent regular keyboard with plenty key depth, Innovative remote, Relatively inexpensive

Isolated issues when setting up

Bearing in mind that the model we reviewed was an engineering sample, we suspect that the version available in stores will be free of the glitch we initially encountered. More importantly though, we dare say that the Revo challenges the assumption that...

Brilliant product. I have no complaints. The pre-installed os was Free-DOS, which I simply ignored and installed Ubuntu 13.4 instead using the Linux Live USB creator. It worked without a problem.

A really fine replacement for my very large desktops. So pleased I have since purchased a Revo, RL80 with Win 8 installed.

This model only has FreeDos OS installed and I am unable to load an OS onto this Revo. Have asked for help from the manufacturer and also the supplier but without a response. When I have overcome this problem, I have no doubt I will be most pleased....

Rate 1 for battery life as it doesn't have (and isn't meant to have a battery). Well specced for price, very quiet. I'm running it as a simple home server with OwnCloud for sharing and backup of photos/music, and its definitely up to the job.

Free dos is a bit off an odd choice for OS, would have preferred a pre-installed Linux flavour, although it was very easy to put Ubuntu on myself.

Acer Revo RL70 DT.SMGEK.014

 

Fantastic machine for using as a HTPC. Runs openlec xbmc like a dream. No driver problems, superb graphics, amazing audio through optic. Almost silent running machine. It's tiny footprint makes it a winner.

The bracket for mounting on the back of a monitor is small, If your planning on mounting this on the back of your tv you may have to look at other options than the supplied bracket.

Acer Revo RL70 DT.SMGEK.014

 

Can be used as an HTPC by installing Ubuntu (Lubuntu) and XBMC.To do this you need a bootable USB (press the DEL key when powering on the Acer Revo to enter the BIOS to select first boot device). You also need to install AMD graphics drivers for smooth...

It does not come with a keyboard. You need to order a wireless mini keyboard for HTPC use.
