Acer this morning brought its thinnest desktop displays to a US audience. The S1 series is built on minimalism and has both thin bezels as well as a slim frame: the screen is never thicker than 0.6 inches. All of the available screens also have pure white LED backlights and a very high 12,000,000:1 claimed dynamic contrast ratio matched to a 5ms pixel response time and 250cd/m2 brightness.
