Acer's new release, entitled Chromebook 15 will come in two variants. They will both have 15.6" screens, but one will have a 1920x1028 resolution while the other will max out at 1366x768. Acer has moved on from the Nvidia K1 chip to an unofficially announced 5th generation intel chip. Acer boasts that the new change will give it's Chromebook's 8 hours of battery life. Expect the starting prices of these Chromebooks to be around $250. No release date has been announced yet.
