At least that's the pitch Dell spokespeople give."</em></p><p><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/dht/auto/1236960271.usr20447.jpg" style="border: 1px solid #d2d2bb;" /></p><p>The effort to push All-in-Ones have existed for well over a decade, with the most prominent one probably being the iMac. While the iMac was a great success for Apple, I've yet to see any Windows based All-in-One truly succeed, and while I suppose laptops and their brethren could fall into that category, I'm not counting them. HP recently took another stab with the HP TouchSmart, and now Dell is having their go at it. The specifications are nothing outstanding, but they'll provide a good experience for most computing uses. I've noticed that they also feature multi-touch as an option, something not normally found in other All-in-Ones, but any vertically mounted touch device raises concerns of "gorilla arm." If the Studio One 19 was laid close to flat, I think it'd be much easier to play with. Maybe that's just my tablet and Microsoft Surface (I wish!) experience coming though. Has anyone tried working against a vertical interface for an extended period of time? It's tiring!</p>
