Acer is about ready to throw in the towel and let itself be taken over

Unlike some of its competitors, Acer hasn’t been able to find much success in the mobile world. Ever since the PC market started dying a few years back, big-name PC manufacturers like ASUS and Lenovo have done a pretty good job of shifting their focus towards the mobile market, but Acer hasn’t been so fortunate. As the Taiwanese company’s stock continues to plummet, founder and honorary chairman Stan Shih has announced that he’s open to the idea of Acer being bought out by another company.
