The LG Chromebase will bear the model number 22CV241, where it will offer the highly efficient Chrome operating system for a fast, simple, secure and affordable computing experience.

Apart from that, the Chromebase would feature a 21.5” widescreen Full HD IPS display that ought to pack in its fair share of pixels, so much so that your eyes will be able to appreciate all that you see there. The entire physical form factor of the LG Chromebase, too, will be pleasing to the eye, and it would not look out of place be it in your living room, in a bedroom, or over on an office desk.

Apart from that, the LG Chromebase can be the gateway to thousands of web apps in the Chrome Web Store, where majority of them will be able to function well offline in the same manner as they do online. Basically, this is an email writing machine, and will also work great for word processing tasks as well as simple spreadsheet crunching. Not only that, it will also have seamless functionality with other Google products including the likes of Gmail, Drive, Search, Maps, YouTube, Play and Google+ Hangouts.

Security wise, do expect integrated robust security, where it will make use of different layers of protection in order to keep users’ information safe and sound. Running on an Intel Celeron processor, the Chromebase will have 2GB RAM and a 16GB SSD underneath the hood. Pricing details remain to be determined as at press time.

LG IPS 21:9 UltraWide All-In-One PC unveiled at IFA 2013

lg-ips-monitorThe larger, the better. That is more or less the mantra of many people. After all, just take a look at our surroundings – the rich do want ever larger mansions, not to mention bigger bank vaults to hoard ever increasing earthly treasure, while workers want bigger pay packets to bring home. Fast food restaurants always want you to upsize your meals for a dollar or two, but are all of those really necessary? However, when it comes to work and the well being of your health, perhaps “larger is better” is a mantra that is worth following where the desktop computer is concerned. LG might be on to something here with the unveiling of their LG IPS 21:9 UltraWide All-In-One PC (also known as model V960) at IFA 2013 in Berlin, Germany.

This is the latest addition that will further expand the cinematically proportioned display range. The IPS 21:9 UltraWide All-In-One PC is proud to be classified as “an advanced desktop” which is said to pack in enough punch to deliver all the advantages of a 21:9 monitor, without the added bulk of another computer chassis placed somewhere in your room. The V960 will be powered by Microsoft’s Windows 8 as the operating system of choice, hence offering a full-fledged PC experience that will be accompanied by a NVIDIA GeForce GT 640M GPU for advanced graphics processing. After all, all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy, so that GeForce GT 640M GPU ought to be a relief for gamers and users who want high quality graphical performance on their machine.

Other features of the V960 include picture-in-picture (PIP) functionality, so that you can multitask – for instance, checking up on the latest stock prices while watching a TV channel simultaneously. Apart from that LG’s AIO PC will ship with a keyboard and mouse so that you can get started right out of the box. There is still no word on pricing or regional availability as at press time, but we do hope to hear more about those aspects soon.
