Averatec are coming out with an all-in-one computer that looks pretty nice.
For $1299 you get a 22" 1680x1050 LCD, Core 2 Duo processor, 320BG hard drive, 2GB RAM, GeForce graphics, 1.3 megapixel webcam, 4-in-1 memory card reader, and dvd/cd writer.
I think a trend we will see in the next year will be the convergence of the low cost low power ultra portable and the all-in-one-pc for home use:
For about $400-$700 you would get an all-in-one PC that is great for everything except gaming (perfect for a kids pc or a kitchen pc) with 15" screen, Atom processor, 1GB ram, 80+GB hard drive, WiFi/bluetooth.
We use an old laptop connected to a 15" LCD and bluetooth keyboard/mouse like this in the kitchen at the moment - it is always available to lookup a recipe, check CNN, delete spam from this website etc and you don't need to carry a laptop or tablet from room to room.
Well they don't say how fast the Intel Core 2 Duo processor will be so that could make a difference but the specs look close to those of an Apple iMac. I do like the idea of a 4-in-1 memory card reader as it will reduce desktop clutter...
