Reviewed on January 7, 2007HP's new TouchSmart PC IQ770 is not as fast as Apple's iMac, nor does it have the same clean-lined elegance. It makes up for those problems with intuitive touch screen software you'll actually use and a comprehensive lineup of features. If you're looking for a home PC to organize your family's schedule, or serve up media in a kitchen or another small room, we know of no other system suited so well for the task.TAGS:HP TouchSmart, touch screen, stylus, Apple iMac, HP, Microsoft Windows Vista, Apple Computer, mouse, keyboard, PC, operating system, Microsoft Windows
Reviewed on June 25, 2008HP's new-and-improved TouchSmart all-in-one PC refines the touch-based concept it introduced last year. Faster all-in-ones, and Apple's iPhone, make the TouchSmart seem a bit behind the times, but the convenient software and its kitchen-friendly design offer functionality that's unavailable elsewhere.TAGS:HP TouchSmart, Averatec, Intel Core 2 Duo, Apple iMac, RSS reader, HP, CPU, Intel
Reviewed on March 16, 2009Even though Dell's Studio XPS-122B has the latest Intel CPU, its sparse configuration feels like a throwback. This is not to say it's slow or lacking in features, but you'll find this system has relatively few aspirations aside from serving as a standard desktop. We recommend it to anyone in need of raw computing power for an affordable price.TAGS:Velocity Micro, Dell Studio, HP Pavilion Elite, Dell, Gateway Inc., optical drive, HP Pavilion, Apple iMac, 64-bit, Apple Computer, Intel, HP
