Noted notebook and PCs manufacturer MSI have announced the UK launch of their new touchscreen PC, the Wind Top AE2020.
A rather attractive looking all-in-one number, the AE2020 multi-touch PC packs a 20″ 16:9 aspect ratio widescreen display, 640GB hard drive, 4GB RAM, a DVD reader/writer with the whole caboodle purring along on trusty Windows 7.
Powered by an Intel Core 2 Duo T6600 (2.2GHz) or Pentium dual-core T4300 (2.1GHz) processor, MSI claim that their heat dissipation technology offers reduced power consumption and lower running temperatures.
The onboard Nvidia ION graphics processor delivers what MSI describe as “full HD video enhancement,” backed by high resolution HDMI video and image inputs and SRS high-end Surround Sound Audio.
The combo comes with MSI’s Wind Touch 3D multi-touch user interface which includes four major functions “Work”, “Play”, “Tools”, and “Internet” that integrate commonly used software with MSI’s own software.
Wrapping up the connectivity options, there’s a 6-in-1 card reader lurking within plus no less than 6 USB 2.0 connection ports, Wi-Fi, VGA in, USB (x6), eSATA, RJ45, mic, headphone and SPDIF.
The MSI AE2020 should be a available now for around £599.
