Packard Bell unveils slimmed down PB oneTwo all-in-one PC

PB oneTwo M

Packard Bell has announced two new slimmed-down revamps in the shape of the 21.5-inch PB oneTwo M and the 23-inch PB oneTwo L. They represent the slimmest ever all-in-one that Packard Bell has so far produced with dimensions of 21.6 x 19.5 x 5-inches (549 x 496 x 129 mm) and 20.4 x 18.7 x 4.72-inch (520 x 476 x 120 mm dimensions).
Both of the new all-in-ones have touch-enabled displays , but whether such functionality is important to you is very much down to personal usage patterns. In the end, though, it's probably better to have it available than not.
Both appears  identical - with Intel Core i3/i5/i7 processor options, integrated Intel HD 2000/3000 graphics with a choice of either NVIDIA GeForce GT530/GT520 or AMD Radeon HD6450 dedicated GPUs, up to 8GB DDR3 RAM and up to 2TB of HDD storage. The full 1080p resolution visuals are supplemented by 5.1 surround sound, Creative THX TruStudio audio through a pair of 2.5W stereo speakers.

There are two USB 3.0 ports, four slower USB 2.0 ports, an HDMI input and a 5-in-1 media card reader. Gigabit Ethernet is offered as standard but, rather bizarrely, both Bluetooth and 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi are listed as optional. A DVD Multi optical drive also comes as standard, but users can opt for Blu-ray as an added extra. Also optional is a useful DVBT TV tuner.

PB oneTwo L

The PB oneTwo's run on Windows 7 Home Premium (64-bit), and benefit from a number of onscreen creativity and productivity widgets - such as social networking portals, photo sharing apps, and onscreen memos, which can be hand-written if desired. A full version of Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 has also been thrown in for good measure.
The PB oneTwo M is priced at GBP599 (US$950), while the PB oneTwo will cost GBP699 (US$1,108).
