we used to sell machines like this where I used to work - they were made by asus - the only problem with them is that you cant really upgrade them - they were always pretty high spec, but after two or three years you really need to buy a new one =( the same is true with laptops, though laptops these days are really cheap- you can get a decent spec for £350 and you can get an excellent spec for £500

yeah. Apple have been the biggest seller of these types of machines in the last few years.

They do have a good fancase though. If I had the cash I'd get one as you need to upgrade your laptop every few years anyways, no different in that respect.

Thats very nice :). If I have a desktop, I need to be able to upgrade it myself so it wouldnt suit me (I have urges to open up and mess around with PC's at times so it would probably frustrate me). Im sure Ive seen similar PC's from Sony.

I would love to have one of them. I don't care too much about upgrading it lol. Although yeah few years down the line I probably won't be saying that :o. Very strong competitor against macs though I think.
