Short on details unfortunately but I can honestly say this is the first AIO I have at least some interest in.

Agreed, if I were looking for an AIO. I would be concerned about cooling the darn thing though.

It would be good for, like, a yacht. But if I was that rich I'd just get a top-of-the-line iMac and dual boot it!

Point is that this one is easily self serviceable.

550W graphics? So this thing will adequately ventilate an Asus Mars II?

For some reason I doubt that. I just can't see this thing actually doing that unless it has some delta fans or something. Need proof. Need tpu review.

It's not too bad from the front, the back is a wee bit rude on the old eyeballs say what.

Got to give them credit for trying here, shame it's not 27 inch too.

All-in-one or not, it's still a desktop PC that lacks mobility. Total misfire.

One. Desktop Pc and mobility... do those go in the same sentence?
Two. I would rather carry around that then even a small nzxt vulcan desktDeop + monitor.
Three. Not built to be mobile. Refer to one.

Yah I'm thinking 550W must just refer to the over-rated psu in general.

It's not that you can't move it around (mobility), but just that it's not really the target usage model, right?

550 watts of heat crammed against an LCD? Will it effect it? It doesn't look like it could dissipate that much heat.

And???? it's a desktop computer, if you want mobility get a laptop or tablet... Here they won't replace my desktop computer.

Anyway it's fine like an alternative to the traditional towers (which takes much space), using laptop as desktops (which is very clumsy for me, even when using ext monitor, kb and mouse, and iMacs (I have one and saves lots of space but expensive and lack some power)...

Besides it seems to have good cooling, thick case and lots of vents...

Shame I can't see those olde horizontal cases or HTPC ones at a cheap price...

IBM(or was it Dell?) used to make tiny "towers" that can be fastened to the back of a monitor, that's far more flexible IMO.
