All-in-one PC doesn't look like a mutant

For years PC makers have tried to come up with a true all-in-one desktop, but more often than not their efforts look like a few components that have been glued together or presented in other impractical forms. There's at least one new model on the Korean market, however, that really does seem to live up to its billing.
The "All-In-One" computer from Seoul-based SBCORE appears to combine all its functions and features in one solid aluminum-finished block that houses CPU, screen and speakers, as well as Intel Core 2 Duo chips, up to 2GB of memory and the usual raft of desktop specs. Its 24-inch LCD also has full high-definition resolution so it can serve as a TV as well, BornRich notes.
Unfortunately for us, there's no word or pricing or whether it will be available beyond the Asian market. So in the meantime, we'll just be left to our own mutant devices.
Hell, the original Mac was all-in-one back in 1984.
This looks like yet another crappy, clunky Windows ripoff. The utter
shamelessness and lack of vision in the PC industry never seems to get
mentioned on Cnet.
I'm sure they wish Apple would just go away.
If you're a Windows user who wants an all-in-one PC, may I sincerely
recommend you consider an iMac. You can run Windows on it, in fact, you
never have to boot into Mac OS X again after you get it set up if you don't
want to. No, it's not more expensive than a similarly equipped PC. Run the
numbers and see for yourself.
There are plenty of reasons not to want an all-in-one; some good reasons,
some not-so-good reasons. But if you *do* want an all-in-one, the iMac is
probably the best around.
style, this is right up there with the original Altair!

(5 Comments)Doesn't look like a mutant, no. Looks like a lightbox for viewing slides shot on film in the dark ages.
Will it tip over if it isn't leaning up against a wall?
Worst industrial design award winner.
Get a Mac.
