Acer Ferrari 4000 Repair

In 2003, Acer Inc. signed a sponsorship agreement with Scuderia Ferrari, the racing division of luxury Italian automaker Ferrari. This sponsorship led to the creation of Ferrari branded products including notebooks, netbooks, and a smartphone. The Acer Ferrari 4000 can be identified by model number ZF3 or 4005WLMi and was released on June 21, 2005.

The Acer Ferrari 4000 is a notebook computer with a 15.4-inch display with a resolution of 1680 by 1050 pixels. It features a matte black carbon-fiber case with a rearing Ferrari stallion logo and accents of race-car red. It includes a wide touchpad and large mouse buttons with a central button to control scrolling and Web browsing. Four instant-start buttons are located above the keyboard and can be programmed to launch the applications used most often. The Acer Ferrari 4000 is positioned between thin-and-light laptops and desktop replacement laptops. It includes a 2 GHz Turion 64 processor and a 5400 rpm 100GB hard drive and 1 GB of slower 33 MHz RAM. In tests of the Acer Ferrari 4000 by CNET, the computer’s battery lasted approximately three and a half hours.

The Acer Ferrari 4000 includes four USB 2.0 ports, an unpowered FireWire port, an S-Video port, a VGA port, and a DVI port, as well as headphone and microphone jacks and a Bluetooth radio. The laptop also includes a slot for Type II PC Cards, a flash card reader that supports Secure Digital, MultiMediaCard, Memory Stick, and xD modules.
