14 DAY TRIAL // Since business users and other corporate customers can always use more desk space, it helps to have a computer that doesn't take much room, hence why all-in-one systems are so popular on that particular market segment.
The newest AiO to make it to the market was designed by Eurocom and features a hardware configuration revolving around Intel Ivy Bridge CPUs.
From June onwards, we assume that Haswell units will be added to the options, probably from among the ranks of the mobile models. For now, though, buyers still have to make do.
The Eurocom Uno 3.0, as the AiO is called, pairs an Intel Core I/i5/i3 CPU with up to 16 GB DDR3 RAM (2 RAM slots).
Storage, likewise, can be made of two distinct drives, be they HDDs or SSDs. One is a 2.5-inch drive, the other a full-size 3.5-inch model.
Moving on, discrete graphics cards aren't available, which means that the Integrated HD 4000 or HD 2500 will have to handle all video playback and rendering alone (up to 1.7 GB dynamic memory).
This cements the newcomer's status as a mid-range computer not suited for heavy workloads but good for office work.
Other specifications include four USB 2.0 ports, two USB 3.0 ports, HDMI out, HDMI in, a headphone jack, an ExpressCard 34/54 slot, Ethernet, serial ports, two PS/2 connectors (mouse/keyboard) and even TPM (trusted platform module) and a Kensington Lock.
Even an optical drive is concluded, and it can either be a Blu Ray Burner or DVD-RW, although people with particular liking for huge integrated storage space can have a third HDD/SSD instead.
As for the 21.5-inch display, it is an LCD with LED backlighting and a native resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels.
Everything is packed in a frame of 21.08 x 1.96 x 14.8 inches / 527 x 49 x 370mm, and operates on 120W (100-250V Auto-switching external AC Adapter). Pricing details haven't been shared, but sales should start pretty soon.
