Dell Studio All-in-One
Dell has introduced an All-In-One product, which is quite aptly named the Studio One All-in-One.
It sports an 18.5″ widescreen display which is great for viewing your desktop or watching HD movies.
While you can outfit it with a keyboard and mouse, you might simply choose to use the touch screen to interact with the system. In fact, if you want you can custom configure a Studio All-in-One with a multi-touch screen.
The All-in-One comes with an Intel Celeron (up to quad-core) processor and NVIDIA graphics support. With that power under the hood, HD video streaming should be smooth.
Dell offers lots of options. Here are the specs for the basic model:
Display: 18.5″ 16:9 WXSGA, CCFL (1366x 768)
Processor: Intel® Pentium® Dual Core (E5200)
Chipset: NVIDIA MCP 7A chipset
Graphics Adapter: nVidia GeForce 9200 Integrated
Memory: 2GB Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM at 800MHz- 2 DIMMs
Hard Drive: 320GB 7200 RPM SATA Hard Drive
Optical Disc: Slot load CD/DVD burner (DVD+/-RW) w/double layer write capability
Operating System: Genuine Windows Vista® Home Basic 32-Bit
Multimedia Keyboard and Optical Mouse
All this for only $699.
This is obviously in a different league than All-in-One nettops like the Asus Eee Top which offers a 15.6″ Touchscreen (1366×768), a 1.6 GHz Intel Atom N270 Processor, 1 GB of RAM, 160 GB Hard Drive and Microsoft Windows XP Home.
But the Eee Top goes for about $200 less.
Both are great options. It just depends what features are important to you.
