CE-Oh no he didn't!: Acer's JT Wang tells Microsoft to 'think twice' about Surface

CE-Oh no he didn't!: Acer's JT Wang tells Microsoft to 'think twice' about Surface

Acer executives have criticized Microsoft's decision to build it's own tablet in the past, but now the firm's CEO has offered Redmond a more direct warning. "We have said [to Microsoft] think it over," Acer CEO JT Wang told the Financial Times. "Think Twice. It will create a huge negative impact for the ecosystem and other brands may take a negative reaction." Microsoft has acknowledged Surface's potential to frustrate its OEM partners, telling the Security and Exchange Commission that competing directly with manufactures might "affect their commitment" to the firm's platform.
