Inside reports claim Acer Inc’s Computer Products Group in Taiwan is building an NT-on-PowerPC box that Acer America expects will be announced in two or three months: Acer America says the box is not intended for OEM channels, presumably because of tight margins; it will however move through value-added reseller channels; Acer may also put Unix on the thing, though it will not necessarily be AIX; an Acer America spokeswoman denied the project’s existence, but then Taiwan is a long way from California.
