Unannounced Dell All-in-One Shows Up at Walmart

Doesn't sound too bad, especially if you cannot build your own system....

But if the IGP is onboard.... =(

who cares its dell at walmart, at least its not atom + igp with flashy colours for 600 dollars

slow news day

Not a bad deal really for an all in one.

That's really not too awful.

I really don't like the all-in-one PC myself, except maybe for very specific purposes, but to each their own.

Not too bad, if you actually buy anything from dell anyway ^_^.

If this is not touchscreen, probably should come down at least a hundred bucks more...

Price is good, the cheapest apple imac is twice this price.

If I could find some decent recipe software, this would be a very nice solution for chef in a kitchen. Especially when it comes to baking =\

It seems pretty decent, and it should be pretty affordable since it's at Walmart.

Not bad for an all in one internet box.

Like they say "Birds of a feather flock together"

1) ill never buy any crappy Dell
2) I'll never buy a computer at crappy Wallmart!!!!

At least they put all the shit together

Yeah its a nice price for what it is.... but won't last for long (1 year)because of the crappy parts used by Dell to save money

Just a glorified laptop posing as a desktop

Intel GMA x4500 IGP

I like the finger in the picture. Very classy.

I am pretty sure i remember seeing one of those at my tech school over a year ago, airman brought it to the lobby of my dorm and played L4D on it, I was like what is that ????

I am not sure, however if it was exactly same computer tho, but I'm pretty sure it was dell.

This is not Dells first all in one PC. The XPS was the first...

Here is the article, hehe they compared it to the ancient I-MAC :

Good price, but will it last 2-3 years?

Anyone see what OS this runs?, I would assume Win7- but what version? It looks like a good PC for the older / plug n play crowd.

Most dells hold up beyond 3 years. Sure they aren't bulletproof but what is. I'd take a dell any day over an acer and especially over an asus. Best laptop brands are dell, toshiba, apple, fujitsu, ibm. toshiba and apple have the lowest defect/return rate.

For basic use (surfing, e-mail, YouTube, etc) it will last a good while, the CPU is not the fastest but I have slower comps with less CPU, RAM power still going strong. You don't need a super system for web surfing or checking facebook, a basic comp like this will do fine.

Not bad, but not good. a Mac Mini and a cheap 19" monitor can be had for about $700 ($740 with a RAM upgrade), and that comes with a decent processor (a bit slower, but at least it has VT), a much better GPU, better expandability, faster RAM, and higher resolution, and it runs OS X and Windows.

Step up $500, and you get a 3GHz iMac, 21.5 vs 18.5", better resolution, better GPU, Better WiFi, bluetooth, much greater expandability, wireless components (kbd/mouse), better speakers, lower power draw, cheaper extended warranty, a free copy of Parallels 5, and more. A Dell with an intel GMA GPU might last a year or two before it's completely useless on the modern Internet, and from day 1 it can't do HD video and can't support dual displays, where an iMac should last 3-5 years easy, and resell later for 1/3rd its value or more. At least on the Mini or an iMac you can play WoW...

I don;t know if he's so concerned with component failure as "will it be SUEFUL" in 2-3 years. With a GMA GPU, slow RAM, no VT support, no external monitor port, it's not looking good...

Basic users today are expecting Hulu to work, Netflix, Flash videos, online games, and more. An intel GMA GPU that can't handle 1080p video is gonna piss off a lot of consumers...

Whats the Res on the display?? if the Display isn't 1080p Hi-Res then your point is totally moot then isn't it?

If the Display isn't HD then this whole remark is pretty much a moot point then isn't it?




Thats asking users to almost double what they paid for this unit already.. for just 500 dollars more.... if you look at it that way, head over to dell.com and look at what you can get there for 500 more... pretty sure something that would blow away your Mac recommendation out of the water in an instant... not always a good idea to bring Mac and Price into a battle... we already know that when you crack open a Mac, most of the components are the same as the competitors with few exceptions... the reason for less problems for Apple is that they have WAY less configuration options for you to choose from and don't have to worry about different parts causing differnt issues. I'm sure if Dell only offered 4 laptops, with no choice in hardware and got the kinks worked out that they would rise to the cream of the crop in reliability as well.. how many year old tech are most of those MAC's based on?? Any using the initial Core i7, or i5?'s Any using the second Gen Core i5's? Say... the MAC's are 2 generations back on processor tech...

Get my long but pointed response...

Saw this this weekend here in NE, about $598(?) core 2. Thought I had missed a new version of XPS. Looked decent enough, copmared to a Atom 2xx for $400 like usual. What happened to the touch version that Sam's had?

These are for basic use but with more oomph than single core Atom but with just a slight premium ($100?). If you want dual monitors, work horse, or HTPC; then buy one. You know, I'd like a auto that carries 9, two tonnes of equipment, goes from zero to sixty in 2.9 sec., has zero emmisions, no gas usage, and costs under 15K, but I guess it just ain't happening, huh?

The only thing I dislike about All in One's is that if your hardware becomes outdated you end up buying a monitor all the time too. Its really not a practical computer design. Monitors far outlast hardware. One reason I would never buy a iMac because its not upgradable.

And what mac mini are you talking about? straight from apple the cheapest mac mini is 600 bones, with 2.26ghz/2g ram/160g hdd?! Ok start with that, 600 plus 100 for a monitor, 20 bucks for a mouse and keyboard, $95 for the ram (comes with 2x1gig, so to get 4g you need to replace all of it cheapest ddr3 laptop ram is $95 from the egg), 100 more dollars for a 640 hdd(and the re installation of osx), not to mention you are still stuck with a 2.26 core2?

So for 915 dollars you got a system that is all wires that you opened up to upgrade yourself.

For 914 bucks go to dell.com you can build the Studio One 19, your choice of a e8400 or a q8200, 4 gigs of ram, the same 9400m graphics, and it comes with its own mouse and keyboard! no reassembly required!
