One of my PC's has gone kaput, so I need a new one. I'm thinking of getting an "All-in-one" Touch screen PC. Has anyone got one and if so, what are the good points and also the bad points?
Ta!

I assume that's some sort of Apple make? Never liked Apple stuff. Sorry.

Don't get a mac, they don't know what flash is!
Plus, if it breaks you can only replace it with another overpriced mac!

My Mac works fine with Flash? It knows it more than most normal PC's as it can develop flash too

It really depends what you want to do with the touchscreen, I had a play in PC on one and it was a bit fiddly to use unless you had some specific touch screen software you wanted to use.

Did you have a model in mind?

Macs work perfect with flash. What you're thinking of is the iphone and ipad. They are made but apple but nothing like a mac.

It looks pretty good, they have it at ebuyer here.

What I usually suggest is to go into PC world, see one you want in the flesh and then check out the internet big boys like buyer to see if they can beat it or even search hotukdeals to see if there is an offer on.

Yeah.. I would always try one out before I buy one. It can be the little things that put you off.

That's a slightly different model Nick. And at £749.00 also a lot more expensive! The one I lwas looking at is only £399.97 in Currys!

Sorry, I did a search and it came up so trusted their such.

Is it this one?

If you are ordering I got a discount code in my email, try PRSCAN10 it might get you free delivery (and 10% off if you buy a printer or scanner)

Aww Fanks Nick. Unfortunately, it isn't available for home delivery and anyway, we're off to Newport in a bit to have a look in PC World and Currys. Thanks Bud!
