MSI converges everything with 24-inch 3D HD Wind Top all-in-one

Now here’s a spec sheet maven’s dream: MSI has just announced its new Wind Top all-in-ones, and the top model brings every modern spec you can think of. Full HD resolution, 3D capabilities with 120Hz refresh rates, Intel processors up to Core i7, and even multitouch adorn its list of goodies. The new flagships will be known as the Wind Top AE2420 in the 24-incher category and AE2280 in the 22-inch class. They’re joined by a selection of high-efficiency machines, such as the AP1920 and AE1920, which promise to cut down the electricity bills for “environmentally-minded business users.” That’s still hardly scratching the surface, though, as MSI is really preparing a small army of AIOs to display at CeBIT, and you can bet the house we’ll be there to touch and ogle at their latest and greatest.

iMac burns, melts, survives to tell the gruesome tale

We reckon this is a story with something for everyone. Microsoft zealots can see Apple’s hardware burnt beyond melting point, while Cupertino loyalists can enjoy the fact that the iMac lived on after it. Anders Norman of Sweden recently suffered a major house fire, but has emerged from it with some good humor and a scorched but amazingly still functional computer. He tells us that even the mouse’s scroll wheel is operational and he took a picture of the iMac displaying the local news website’s report of his home’s unfortunate demise. Click the source link for more pictures.

[Thanks, Robert]

Samsung MU200 caught on camera, begging for its screen to be touched

Somehow we missed giving the Samsung MU200 a groping at CES, and we’re pretty sure we’d forgive ourselves for that if NewGadgets.de hadn’t caught some pretty incomplete video of the 20-inch touchscreen all-in-one. Though it has some responsive touch buttons, we’ve got no idea how its multitouch display performs since the German-chap forgot to test it out. We know CES can be an exhausting time, but we’re not sure how you forget to try out the most important part of the machine (there’s even a big cartoon finger demanding onlookers to touch it!). But we do learn from the video that the system packs a 2.2GHz Intel Pentium T4400 processor, 2GB of RAM, 320GB of storage, and GeForce G310 graphics and that it got a fair share of ports along the backside and an optical drive on its right side. For now we’ll just be left wondering what’s its like to drag our fingers over that digital fish pond, and if the MU200 will making it past the Korean market. Hit the break for the video.

Lenovo busts out IdeaCentre A300, IdeaPad S10-3t and plenty of other solid Ideas

Lenovo already treated us to a slew of new ThinkPad machines, and now it’s time for the Idea line to get its due. Up first, we’ve got the IdeaCentre A300, which is hailed as the industry’s thinnest all-in-one desktop. Measuring just 18.5mm deep, the 21.5-inch machine sports a 1080p LED panel, Core 2 Duo CPU, WiFi and a bundled Bluetooth keyboard / mouse. The IdeaPad S10-3t (shown above) is the industry’s first multitouch capacitive netbook tablet, with Lenovo trumpeting the device’s ability to easily recognize fingertip input and plow through chores with an Atom N470 CPU and a 320GB hard drive. Moving right along, the 14-inch Y460 and 15.6-inch Y560 offer up respectable multimedia performance on a budget, while the 20-inch Lenovo C310 goes down as the company’s first multitouch all-in-one desktop. The Core i7-equipped IdeaCentre K320 caters to the gamers, and the G460 / G560 lappies are slated to suit those “mainstream” users who just need something basic to handle… well, the basics. Pricing, availability and detailed specifications await you just beyond the break.

Lenovo IdeaCentre B500 hands-on impressions

We managed to get some nice hands-on time with the Lenovo IdeaCentre B500 while chilling out in Hong Kong, and we’re glad to say that up close this all-in-one desktop wasn’t too far off the renderings we saw in October. Fans of Transformers might dig those angular corners and brushed metal effect, but we lack the expertise to tell if it’d be an Autobot or a Decepticon. Actually, we do, but we’re far too humble to say it out loud. Click on if you’re digging a deeper look.

MSI Wind Top AE2220 unboxing and impressions

In the land of netbooks and nettops, the tried-and-true all-in-one PC still has a place in this world yet. MSI is living proof of that, with its 21.5-inch Wind Top AE2220 bringing Windows 7, multitouch and an eye-pleasing design to the collective masses. Said machine just started shipping to consumers at the tail end of last month, and we’ve been fortunate enough to spend a few weeks tinkering with one of the most cost effective AIO options on the market right now. Thankfully for those who enjoy doing anything with relative speed, MSI overlooked the Atom range and went straight for the Core 2 Duo lineup, and for those with a bit of extra coin to spend, there’s even an optional TV tuner and Blu-ray drive. Care to see how we felt about this touch-friendly rig after some extended play time? Read on to find out.

Shuttle reportedly set to debut Pine Trail-based all-in-one at CES

It wouldn’t be Shuttle’s first all-in-one desktop (it debuted the X50 pictured above at last year’s CES), but it looks like the company does have another, new and improved model on track for a launch at CES 2010 next month. More specifically, Fudzilla reports that Shuttle will have a Pine Trail-based all-in-one desktop of some sort on hand at the show, which will apparently be joined by a new J Series model in the company’s XPC linuep. Unfortunately, details on either are still as light as can be, but Shuttle sure has raised expectations for itself this time around — we’ll just have to wait and see if it can live up to them.
