Lenovo Idea Center 600

The moment you look at it, you want to get close, see the curvy body and say, oh man, how I want this in my bedroom.

There is this huge discussion about whether laptops will replace our desktops or will we head towards all-in-one devices. There have been desktops from all companies now, and Lenovo is one of the last movers. But what they have come out with is a heart stopper. Its 21.5 inch monitor, set in a frameless black bezel, looks fabulous and supports 1920 x 1080 p (Full HD). The starting models have a Core 2 Duo 2 GHz processor with 2GB RAM and 500 GB hard disc. It comes with a DVD Writer drive, and Windows Vista preloaded. Lenovo calls it the world’s slimmest PC. Also included is a 4-in-1 remote control that acts as a VoIP phone, a motion drive game (a la Wii from Nintendo), a Media Center remote, and an Air Mouse. The wireless keyboard and mouse are great to work with. There are a total of six USB ports, two are on the side and four on the rear. Like most of the recent LCD TVs, this all-in-one PC also features a touch control—to eject the optical drive or change the brightness. Speakers are 2.1 with a bass sub woofer.

Though there are models available with Blu-ray disc readers in the international market, I could not get a confirmation on them being available in India, and how an upgrade could be made to Blu-ray.
