The Acer Revo Build is a Customizable Modular Mini PC
Charlotte Joyce Kidd — September 3, 2015 — Tech
The 'Acer Revo Build' is a mini modular desktop computer that can be customized with special "building block" components that add different features to the mini PC.
The main body of the Acer Revo Build looks like a mini Bento box - thin, black, compact and rectangular. But the ultra-small PC itself isn't the special part of the modular desktop system. What's special is that the Acer Revo Build essentially lets its owner build their own computer. If storage is what's important to the user, there's a portable hard drive module that stacks on top of the main body to add extra space. If the modular desktop is going to be used for gaming, there's a graphics block that can be added. The 'Acer Revo Build' also features its own built-in speaker and a wireless power block, rendering it completely portable.
