Acer's powerful gaming predator blew up the Russian market
Acer, the leader in computer equipment supplies to the Russian Federation with a market share of 14% (IDC data for the 2nd quarter of 2008), announces the successful launch of sales of unique Aspire Predator gaming systems in Russia.
Desktop PCs for advanced gamers appeared on the shelves at the M.Video retail chain stores on August 23, and in the first week more than 10% of all systems from the first batch of devices delivered to Russia were sold.
High customer interest in the new product confirms the correctness of the strategy chosen by the company - to create a unique solution designed for a highly specialized segment of computer game fans who place extremely high demands on the performance and reliability of the system.
One of the key factors for the successful launch of Aspire Predator desktops in Russia is also the uniqueness of the practice of retail sales of heavy-duty gaming machines. Until now, similar gaming solutions in Russia could only be purchased with a pre-order via the Internet, and the assembly time reached several months. Thanks to Acer, purchasing a dream computer for a gamer has become truly possible. Now, buying a system, the user gets the opportunity to evaluate its appearance and technical potential not by the picture and description on the site, but to be convinced in practice of technological excellence and excellent product design!
