The company began with eleven employees and US$25,000 in capital. Initially, it was primarily a distributor of electronic parts and a consultant in the use of microprocessor technologies. It produced the <a href="/wiki/Micro-Professor_MPF-I" title="Micro-Professor MPF-I">Micro-Professor MPF-I</a> training kit, then two Apple II clones–the <a href="/wiki/Microprofessor_II" title="Microprofessor II">Microprofessor II</a> and <a href="/wiki/Microprofessor_III" title="Microprofessor III">III</a>–before joining the emerging IBM PC compatible market and becoming a significant PC manufacturer. The company was renamed Acer in 1987. </p><p>In 1998, Acer reorganized into five groups: Acer International Service Group, Acer Sertek Service Group, Acer Semiconductor Group, Acer Information Products Group, and Acer Peripherals Group. To dispel complaints from clients that Acer competed with its own products and to alleviate the competitive nature of the branded sales versus contract manufacturing businesses, the company spun off the contract business in 2000, renaming it Wistron Corporation. The restructuring resulted in two primary units: brand name sales and contract manufacturing. In 2001, the company sold its manufacturing units <a href="/wiki/Benq" class="mw-redirect" title="Benq">BenQ</a> and <a href="/wiki/Wistron" title="Wistron">Wistron</a> in order to focus resources on design and sales. </p><p>Acer increased worldwide sales while simultaneously reducing its labor force by identifying and using marketing strategies that best utilized their existing distribution channels.
