Acer pavilion theme is Express.your.excellence.
For Acer, Excellence is an inner calling that takes us a little further every day, it's the spirit that helps us all achieve results that only yesterday seemed impossible. Excellence, both in Sport and in Technology, happens when we overcome those barriers and express ourselves to the fullest.
The Showcase will recreate, in diverse interactive areas, the pursuit of excellence in sporting achievements and technological innovation. In 'The Perfect Machine' area you can measure how close your body machine is to athletic perfection. Acer has designed a special touch screen fitness measuring station that will reveal your true athletic profile. Put your body machine to the test! http://www.acer.com/olympic_games/
