Shuttle Jumps on the All-in-One Bandwagon
All-in-ones are fast becoming all the rage and it looks like Shuttle doesn’t want to miss the party.
Like it or not, more and more manufacturers are churning out all-in-one PCs with Intel’s Atom or Nvidia’s Ion inside. Looking at a list of products from Nvidia’s Ion partners shows us no less than seven all-in-ones, including machines from Asus, ECS, Flextronics and Pegatron. This week Shuttle is showing off its Atom-based X50 all-in-one.
Specs-wise you’re looking at Intel’s Atom 330 and 945GC chipset combination, with 1GB DDR2 memory (upgradeable to 2 GB) and a 160 GB HDD (with 600 GB option). You’ve got a 1.3-megapixel webcam is built into the top bezel of the system, a feature that is fast becoming ubiquitous with netbooks and nettops, and a 4-in-1 card reader is as well as all the usual suspects, portswise (including three USB 2.0). When it comes to the display, the X50 packs a 15.6-inch 1336×768 16:9 touchscreen display but Digitimes reports that Shuttle also has models starting at 10.2-inch and ranging higher available on demand for outside the consumer market (e.g. digital signs and kiosks). Price is somewhere around $600, according to rumors.
Looks like we’ll soon be inundated with all-in-ones. Anyone plan on buying one when this barrage of products finally hits the market?

Are any companies paring the Ion with Via Nano? I would have assumed most Ion platforms would still use an Atom processor.
The problem with All-in-Ones is upgrade-ability, there is none. If I'm going to get an enclosed, minimally upgradeable computer running an underpowered processor, it would be a netbook, at least those are designed for portability.
The only thing most of these Atom/Ion all-in-ones have is a touch screen, which could be nice, but I would expect more tablet/touchscreen netbooks in the future.
I would never buy a Shuttle again. I own three of there computers and non of them last longer than a year. It looks great.

This is only a DDR2 memory video card !!

It doesn't go anywhere near a HD3850 agp with 512 of 256-BitGDDR3 !!
READ THE SPECS !
HUGE memory bandwith difference

Huh? Might wanna check where you posted that, buddy.

lol, that's why you only use the case.
Priced around $600? Um... that's about where the Dell Studio all-in-one starts, and it has a significantly better processor and display. Why would anyone buy the Shuttle?
lol - its one-half of an underpowered notebook. Or its one-half a netbook with too large a screen.
Oh wait, the monitor has a handle - that's new
my kid has something like that. you push the pretty colored buttons and it makes farm animal noises....NEXT!
600 for an atom?
Here this is an Ultra Swanky all in one computer called a "Laptop".

Too much. A faster and better laptop easily runs $500-600 these days with rebate.
This concept All-in-One is supposed to be upgradable.

"Intel’s Atom or Nvidia’s Ion inside"
This makes no sense, the Ion uses the Atom processor.
