Acer has sold several lines of netbooks under its Gateway brand.

AMD-based

LT31

The LT31 was released in mid-2009. Employing an AMD Athlon L110 processor and having a Radeon X1270 GPU ( M690T chipset) powering its 11.6" display (1,366x768), the system was praised by reviewers as a faster and more "grown-up" alternative to a standard netbook (which typically contain slower

Its US launch price of $399 was judged "a whopping $100 less than the average netbook" by Computer Shopper US, which gave it its "Editor's Choice" award. At the time of the launch, AMD was however unhappy with one its products being used in a netbook, still claiming they had no interest in the netbook market.

Although the Gateway site doesn't list this variant, press reports indicate that the Canadian version of the LT22, launched in August together with the LT32, was powered by the more powerful K125 processor (1.7Ghz) just like its bigger brother.
