MSI All in one touchscreen computer

I have been looking at purchasing a new desktop computer.
I will mainly only use it for Microsoft Office, surfing the internet, some videos and I might use it for photoshop.
I want somthing that will last a long time as im not very into updating things every year!!!
Found this on argos site

I dont kno anyone with a MSI computer so havent a clue if its a good make or not....
loving the idea of all in one computers so space is limited.
If anyone has any info on this please let me know or suggest some some other alternitives!

Thanks

MSI are a decent brand, certainly many of their netbooks/laptops have gotten excellent reviews, I have set up a MSI netbook and laptop for different people and they seem well built/designed. They are also decent value mostly.
Do you really need a touchscreen though? For the most part they are awkward to use, and the novellty will wear off sooner than you'd think. That systems spec is pritty standard, poor value for money imo but perhaps someone else would advise further, I wouldn't rush into buying it, decent brand but seems a bit expensive for what it is, its only a 20" screen after all

Pretty much agree with everything Yoyo said, but if you really are set on an All in One touchscreen PC, then this is about 110 euro more expensive (free delivery), but will have more longevity as it has a much better processor and better specs in general. (Nothing wrong with MSI as a brand, just that the specs are a little dated)
