Every time I look around there is a new netbook computer being unveiled or a low cost notebook, which is what the masses want thanks to the poor economy. There is a building demand for other types of computers as well like the all-in-one desktop and Acer has unveiled its latest AIO called the Z5610.

The machine will run Windows 7 Home Premium and uses the Touch Pack for Windows 7 for its 23-inch multi-touch LCD. The fact that the machine runs Windows 7 means it should ship sometime after October 22.

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.

The C100 will be available this month with prices starting at $399. The little rig gets an 18.5-inch LCD with a wide aspect ratio that is only 2-inches thick and houses all the hardware the typical PC has. Basic machines get an Intel Atom 230 single-core CPU.

Acer has been adding to its Veriton line of computers recently with affordable gear aimed at business users. The company offered up its Veriton nettop not long ago and now Acer has added a new all in one to the Veriton line.

The new Veriton Z280G is an all-in-one desktop with an Intel Atom N270 CPU running Windows XP Pro with a Vista Business option. Acer equips it with 2GB of RAM and a 160GB HDD. Five USB ports are offered for expansion.
