Acer and Intel Joining Hands for Indian Market

India is a growing market for laptops. Well, it is true that economic recession caused some problem for the economy of the country but reality is that most people do not own a PC and there is a lot of room for growth. In fact, it has the second largest market in mobile phone. So, there is no reason that someday it can have the second largest PC and Laptop market. Acer and Intel have targeted this market seriously now.
