wwwd Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 Anyone got one of these? Went to PC World the other day and thought they were brilliant! My PC is about 10 years old now so I'm due to replace it soon, but would you recommend getting one or stick to a normal PC? They were priced around the £550 mark which is a similar price to a normal PC anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeeWee Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 Are we talking about a pc with a touchscreen or a tablet based device?If its the Pc with a touchscreen monitor then its the monitor that does the trickery, windows 7 allows for touchscreen if you buy the monitor capeable to use with it.

smithyandco Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Bare in mind with a touchscreen all-in-one you can still use a normal keyboard and mouse so you have nothing to lose... They look good if your not really into upgrading parts and are more of a upgrade the whole thing sort of person. Personally I would buy a decent PC and a touchscreen monitor if I wanted this route but I like cabling and all-in-ones are just plug into the wall type computers.

Aye I barely ever touch the screen atall now, opted back to using my precision trackball and keyboard, though I occassionally unintentionally touch it when Im scrolling through site and architect reports and Im trying to read a specific line.... the result is a sudden unrequired screen movement and much swearing on my part.
