Acer continues to make impressive strides in its consumer PC business, but lest the company become too one-dimensional, there's been a recent shift in focus towards the enterprise side.
"You can't be a PC player just on consumer, we need to be a PC player in all segments," Acer president and CEO Gianfranco Lanci said in an interview with Bloomberg. "This year, you'll see a big effort from our side on commercial."
Lanci went on to say that he expects servers to account for about 4 percent of the Acer's sales this year, a segment he says offers up to twice as much profit margins as its netbook, notebook, and other consumer products.
Acer has been on a roll lately, having recently posted record revenue and profit numbers for 2009.
