Though Lenovo unveiled the IdeaCentre A310 all-in-one PC last month, the machine has only been selling in Japan, and the PC maker has now, finally, expanded availability to the US market, where two versions are currently listed as up for order.

All-in-one systems managed to establish their own market segment because there are plenty of end-users willing to pay a price premium for compactness.

As time went by, PC makers even made a point of refining their designs, so that their computers also had a fair level of aesthetic value, and Lenovo's new IdeaCentre builds on this experience.

At present, the official websites lists the IdeaCentre A310-40731GU and the IdeaCentre A310-40731HU, both of which have mostly similar specifications, except for their CPUs and storage.

The IdeaCentre A310-40731HU is the most powerful of the pair, its configuration being centered around the Intel Core i5-450M central processing unit, whose frequency is of 2.4 GHz.

This CPU is backed up by 4 GB of RAM, and the Intel HD integrated graphics will be sure to keep the 21.5-inch Full HD-ready glossy display occupied.

The all-in-one also features a DVD writer, a built-in webcam, WiFi, a TV tuner and a 7-in-1 card reader, among other things.

The second AiO, the IdeaCentre A310-40731GU, has the same memory, graphics and overall connectivity and I/O options as its sibling.

Still, it is different from the other system through its CPU, namely the Core i3-350M, which settles for a clock speed of 2.26 GHz.

The other difference is the hard drive. The lower-end Lenovo all-in-one has only 320GB of storage space available.

End-uses interested in the full list of components and any other sort of information on the newcomers may visit the official website, found here.

The A310-40731GU and the A310-40731HU are pre-loaded with the Microsoft Windows 7 operating system, come with a one-year warranty and cost $949 and $1,129, respectively.
