[Cristian_25H]

Previously showcased at CeBIT (in March) and Computex (in June), Asus' 27-inch ET2700 all-in-one PC has now been launched in the US where it's set to go head-to-head with the Apple iMac.

The ET2700 is equipped with an LED-backlit Full HD (1920 x 1080) MVA panel offering 178/178 degree viewing angles (and, depending on model, 10-point multi-touch) and features a Sandy Bridge processor (Core i3-2120, i5-2400S, i5-2405S or i7-2600S), up to 8 GB of RAM, Intel HD integrated graphics or an NVIDIA GeForce GT 540M 1/2 GB card, up to a 2 TB hard drive, and either a DVD writer, a Blu-ray combo drive, or a Blu-ray burner.





Asus' all-in-one desktop also has a 2-megapixel webcam, Gigabit Ethernet, 802.11 b/g/n WiFi, an SD card reader, two USB 3.0 ports, Sonic Master audio (a subwoofer is bundled with certain SKUs), and both D-Sub and HDMI outputs. The ET2700 runs Windows 7 (Home Premium or Professional) and has a starting price tag of $1,499.

I do and I don't like it.. I like how it's a nice all in one... I just wish there was "mounting" for it..

The Apple iMac 27” model comes with a 2560 x 1440 resolution display and an i5 but starts at ~$1699.99.

For that price, I might as well spend $500 more on the nearly beefiest iMac and get:
-2560*1440 IPS display
-HD 6970m (basically an underclocked HD 6850 desktop GPU)
-Moar ports, and with even more $$$, a 2GB 6970m, i7-2600, etc.

Then again, I gradually spent about $2000 on my new PC but I have an ASUS 120Hz 23" screen, a 6950 2GB unlocked, 120GB SSD, 2600K and a ton of other awesome goodies. Love the form factor of these but the price and limited upgrades keep me away.
