Acer Revo 3610 Atom Ion Demo- Part 2 Flash 10.1 with Hulu

Have you tried running iTunes movies on this machine? I heard this machine doesn't play them very well. I'm very interested in this computer, but only if iTunes movies can play smoothly on it....thanks!

@wayner5102421 from what I understand, the iTunes Movie player does not support GPU acceleration, so lower power CPU machines like the Atom/Ion s will not be able to play the video smoothly. SInce the CPU will have to do all the work a higher 2.66 ghz dual or quad core will be needed.

what do you recomend this little net top for.... ?

@skaman125 I thought the demos illustrates its usage... What do you mean exactly?

what version of Flash is that?

[pauljrobertss]

@ThisIsBillyH

At the time of this video it was Flash 10.1 Beta 1p. Now I'm running RC 4 and is demo'd in my three latest videos with Boxee. Check my channel.

I want one of these so bad.

hey have you thought about getting the broadcom crystal hd card. I heard it decodes video alot better with reduced cpu usage

I have the acer ar1600 and win7 x86 and everything is working great. Did a few mods but now it's really good. Flash does stutter sometimes at full screen but until the final version is out I'll wait.

[pauljrobertss]

No, no need to open it and install anything else. Works flawlessly as it is. Zero lag or anything. ;-)

The 1600 has only one core and ION LE, so those limitations will cause it to lag on some intensive video types like Flash. I don't feel that final Flash will solve the hardware limitations that the 1600 has.

Glad it works well for you.

Nope, none.
