Re: New Computer... Dell XPS 2710 AIO

said by TheMG:

Seems like Dell is trying to compete with Apple as that looks an awful lot like the latest generation 27" iMac.

Yep -- and I believe this one will give them a run for their money. Consumers & businesses looking for an all-in-one, running Windows, will find this unit to be the perfect item.

The previous AIO's from Dell were terrible (IMO).

It's a nice AIO system to be sure.

One of the problems with AIO systems though is expansion and upgrades. Since Intel Thunderbolt has come to the PC market with Intel Ivy Bridge systems and is basically DisplayPort + PCIe expansion it addresses a known shortcoming specific to AIO systems.

One would think we will start to see Intel Thunderbolt on newer portable (laptops and some tablets) and AIO system soon, not just some Z77 motherboards.
