"With revenues equal to those of 2008," Lanci said in answer to a question on how he thought the company would close the year. Acer had 2008 revenues of 546 billion Taiwan dollars

($16.92 billion), according to its website.

Acer said on Oct. 12 that it expected third-quarter revenue to be up about 5 percent due to a rebound in tech demand as the global rebound shows more signs of recovery. [nTP260919]

Lanci said there would be more consolidation in the sector.

"If you want profits, you have to consolidate. The acquisition process is not over," he said.
