Acer America has announced the new Veriton N260G-U2802CP, an ultra-compact nettop for the US professional market. It will be available via Acer's authorized resellers with prices beginning at just US$399, according to the company.

Housed in an one-liter chassis, the Veriton N260G can be placed upright with its retractable stand or attached to the back of a display. Due to its small size and flexible design, this practical nettop is suitable for small offices, reception areas, classrooms, libraries, showrooms, call centers, hotel front desks or airline check-in kiosks, Acer said.

The Veriton N260G-U2802CP combines a low power consumption Intel Atom processor with an Intel GN40 Express chipset, up to 2GB of memory, a 160GB hard drive and integrated Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 4500M GPU.

The Veriton N260G is Energy Star qualified, while the nettop also features Acer PowerSaver technology, which gives users the option to conserve energy and power on demand, the company highlighted.
