Dell has finally released an all in one PC the XPS One to compete with Apples iMac. The success of the iMac has forced PC manufacturers to develop all in one PCs, with names like Sony, HP, and Gateway recently releasing they own models.

Of course it has all the features of a high end PC, 802.11, bluetooth, webcam, and all the standard ports plus what I really like is the TV tuner input which is unique for an all in one.
