The Design
Sporting a very small frame, the Acer Revo One is seemingly designed by Acer to compete with mini desktop PCs like the Apple Mac Mini, HP Pavilion Mini, Intel Compute Stick and other mini desktop offerings.
The build and size is quite attractive, with these being among its key selling points. While the micro PC is well outdone in terms of compactness by the Intel Compute Stick, it is stylish and fit into almost any space.
Acer Revo One features a rectangular, plastic body with curved edges and a glossy finish in white or black.
Media Streamer and Complete Desktop PC
The Acer Revo One is both a full-fledged media streaming device and a full desktop computer, perfect for both work and entertainment. You can use it as a streaming server for movies and videos with ability to stream to virtually every device you may have in your home.
But you are not just buying a media streaming box with the Acer Revo One, you are getting a complete desktop PC. Simply hook the device to a monitor (which may well be your TV) and use the supplied wireless keyboard and mouse to get important tasks done.
