Acer has this week taken the wraps off a new edition to their range of notebook devices with the unveiling of the new Acer TravelMate B113 notebook, which Acer says has been designed to provide the perfect everyday learning companion for students.

As you would expect with any new PC notebooks launched after Microsoft’s Windows 8 official launch, it comes equipped with Microsoft Windows 8 Professional, together with a copy of Microsoft’s Windows 7 operating system.

The range of Acer TravelMate B113 notebooks are equipped with the latest "Ivy Bridge” 3rd Generation Intel CoreTM i3 processors, supported by 4GB of RAM and 500GB hard drive.

Acer have equipped the new TravelMate B113 with an 11.6-inch Acer ComfyView LCD LED backlit display with HD (1366×768) resolution and a 16:9 aspect ratio.

"The TravelMate B113 notebook allows students to create and share content with friends and schoolmates, even in real time. Perfect for both beginners and advanced users, it provides basic functionality and ease of use. With its six-cell battery, the TravelMate B113 can achieve more than seven hours of battery life, avoiding the need for recharging in the classroom where only a few outlets may be available.”

The Acer TravelMate B113 notebooks are available within the US and Canada now starting from $399.
