Acer own PB, it's her low cost firm in Europe.

I'have recently read the Acer's strategy:

Acer is for SMB market and high end retail market
PB will be the low cost /low end familly market
Nec it's global market in Asia and maybe North America ?
Gateway is for Noth America, and completly away from EMEA

I don't know really the segment market of Gateway and NEC but I think Acer hope become a key player of business notebook.

and why not ? Their products are not so bad in high end.

Wow, I didn't realize Acer was so big. I should have though. It's fun to think of big companies being owned by other companies and never realizing it before.
