    I am interested in this pc,the only issue I have with this is it's not a dual core, would this be an issue with installing 64bit OS.


    Does anybody have any input on this pc.....

    It's an I3 ;)

    I would also be very surprised if it was not the 64 bit version of windows 7 HP installed.

    Its basically laptop components and a 21.5" screen. Not particularly powerful, even as laptops go, but it'd do the job for web browsing, music, movies etc. Note that it doesnt seem to have an optical drive.

    Not much more to say really, if you absolutely have to have an all-in-one, its decent enough.

    I like the look of this i must say, not in the market for anything like this though. For many people this would be a perfect home pc, only a laptop i3 yes, but thats no slow chip in fairness, and with 4gb of ram too. Certainly a good deal

    There is an external optical drive with these machines, Oh and the transformer is seperate as well.
    Very nice looking machines, I have seen one for 699 here.
