Dell Unveils All-in-One Desktop With Multi-Touch
Dell announces the new Studio One 19 all-in-one desktop with multi-touch.
The Studio One 19 was officially announced by Dell today, which features an 18.5-inch LCD display with 1366 x 768 resolution and optional multi-touch capabilities. The system also flaunts a stylish aluminum, glass and fabric design and comes in several colors, including white, red, blue, pink and charcoal. Although touch-capable all-in-one systems were a common sight at CES this year, unlike many of the competing alternatives, the Studio One 19 is not a lowly nettop system with just an Intel Atom processor under the hood.
The Studio One 19 comes with a choice of Intel processor, ranging from the Intel Celeron 450 to the beefy Intel Core 2 Quad 8200, and a choice of either Nvidia Geforce 9200 or Geforce 9400 integrated graphics. The system also features 1 GB to 4 GB of dual-channel memory, 160 GB to 750 GB of hard drive storage, 2.1-channel audio output, a 7-in-1 media card reader and a choice of either a slot-load DVD burner or a read-only Blu-ray combo drive. Helping to keep the price down, optional features include integrated 802.11b/g/n WiFi, a 1.3-megapixel web camera, a microphone and facial recognition security.
The Studio One 19 can also be loaded with some innovative, yet apparently optional, software to enhance the touch experience. Some of the highlights include software for multi-touch photo editing, finger painting, slideshow creation, playlist compilation, notes, web surfing, quick launching and music creation.
Japan will be getting the Dell Studio One 19 first on March 19, but a US release is expected as soon as late April. The Dell Studio One 19 all-in-one desktop will have a starting price of $699, but the multi-touch capable version is expected to be priced somewhere closer to $900. The system weighs 22.7-pounds and measures 22- x 15.5- x 3.2-inches in size.


Integrated Graphics? Ouch...
Looks nice but looks can be deceiving.
Maybe because you do not need a GTX 2XX or 48XX to encode video and use photoshop. Space is the limmiting factor here.
You don't need a quad core that either. I would much rather have a dedicated GPU, even an older one such as an 8600m GT, and a dual core CPU than a quad core and integrated graphics.
Yeah... that's what you get if you buy from OEMs... overpowered CPUs with integrated graphics.
Photoshop CS4 takes advantage of the Graphic card capabilityes as well as After effect wich is used for video compositing
When you order the Studio One through Dell (in Canada anyways), there is no price difference between the two.
