According to AllThingsD Acer is angry that Microsoft is making their own hardware. However I think this has been a long time coming. For as long as I can remember, I thought that if Microsoft could control what hardware their OS goes on, they could optimize the OS for said hardware rather than bloat the whole thing with every driver under the sun installed for all the variable hardware floating around.
Also, Acer really shouldn't complain because they are mindless sheep. Almost ever computer manufacturer is "married" to Microsoft in the sense that's all they use. Dell offers a Linux option, and HP used to have WebOS, but everyone else just rides the windows bandwagon. They don't take any pride in their work, if they did then they'd create their own operating systems. When you use the same hardware and software as everyone else, and just slap you name on the side of the box, you become a mindless sheep.
Maybe instead of getting angry at Microsoft, Acer should instead work on their own OS or use one of the over a hundred different distributions of Linux. I recommend creating their own OS.
In closing I'd just like to say again, good for you Microsoft. You're finally taking some pride in the hardware your software goes into! Even if it is ugly hardware...
