Lenovo has unveiled a new all in one computer that is very thin. The machine has a 21.5-inch full HD resolution screen and is only 18.5mm thick. The machine is so thin it has no internal optical drive.
I have mentioned before that I want a HTPC computer in the living room, but I don’t have the space for it in the entertainment center. Lenovo has a new HTPC machine that I am sure I could find room for called the IdeaCentre Q150.
Gartner tracks industry statistics for computers, mobile phones and a number of other product categories. The company has published the latest numbers for the PC industry covering Q1 2010.
Lenovo is known for making a full range of computers for consumers and business users globally. The company has a full line of notebooks, netbooks, and desktop computers. Lenovo has unveiled its latest workstation desktop PC aimed at professional users called the E20.
Computers that are aimed at businesses are typically pretty boring. The business manager in charge of buying computers typically wants two things — machines that work and machines that are dirt cheap. Typically, that means plain machines missing features that consumers take for granted in the name of low cost.
Lenovo is apparently trying to corner the market on all-in-one computers and has been releasing several of the machines over the last few weeks. Today Lenovo has announced a new AIO machine called the ThinkCentre A70z. Lenovo touts that the machine can start up in 35 seconds and shut down 40% faster than rival systems.
Lenovo introduced a few new computers today, but the most interesting visually is the B500 all-in-one, which sports a sexy and stealth fighter like angular design. The IdeaCentre B500 isn’t just about looks though. It has decent specs.
Lenovo’s Q110 nettop has now gone on sale for $399. For that price you get 2GB of RAM and a 160GB hard drive, along with Windows Vista Home Premium. Though many of you will probably wait a few weeks and get it with Windows 7 loaded in.
Two segments in the computer industry are growing robustly despite the economic downturn around the globe. Those two segments are netbooks and all-in-one desktops. In fact, IDC expects the all-in-one category alone to grow by 12.4% from 2008-2013. Today Lenovo added a new all-in-one to its line called the C100, and it’s cheap.
Not so long ago if you wanted to add a second or third display to your computer that meant you needed a video card with multiple outputs or maybe even an additional video card. That meant a significant outlay of money and buying new hardware.
With the poor global economy, it’s no surprise that computer sales are slipping around the globe. The only segment of the computer industry that is actually growing robustly is the netbook category as consumers look to lower cost devices.
