I like touch screen on a mobile device but I just don't see them being very ergonomic in this configuration.


I originally thought that too, but I think a touch-screen all-in-one like this is a great living-room computer. It's something that you can walk up to and control without sitting down when you want the weather forecast or the TV Guide. It's not something you're going to use all the time. I've had my eye on the HP TouchSmart PCs for a while now, but I don't have room for one in my living room and I don't have the money for one either.

This Dell looks sharp, but I prefer the black over the white.
