Dell XPS One

xpsone_4b_400.jpgDell 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. In my opinion the XPS One is differently a higher end system then the iMac mainly because of its blueray drive. They have done a great job with the design it looks slick with it 20″ flat screen monitor, side attached speakers, and wireless keyboard and mouse. The nice thing about the keyboard is that it has a touchpad, similar to a laptops to allow you to sit back and control your PC from the couch. 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.

Western Digital’s My Book is a sleek 1 TeraByte (1000 GB’s) external hard drive. Its curves seem a bit softer and there is a blue activity light.

This new version has just a single LED strip that bounces back and forth during activity and then lights up as you fill the drive up.
