Hrmmmm~

So far i’ve only seen this used as touchy touch smart touch mode, but what about the desktopness, hrm~

Kaosu Ponders~

Best buy has two versions, sleek and powerful, i’m leaning towards powerful.

  • Intel® Core™2 Duo Processor T5850,2.16GHz
  • 500GB 7200RPM SATA hard drive
  • NVIDIA GeForce 9300 M GS HD graphics module with 256MB dedicated video memory
  • 22″ diagonal widescreen BrightView LCD with tilt adjustment
  • Built-in DVD burner
  • Wireless LAN 802.11b/g/n
  • HP webcam and integrated microphone
  • ENERGY STAR® qualified
  • ATSC high-definition TV tuner

And the fact that i can also draw on it, is another factor i’m gravitating to this fanciful pc :3

Also i have always wanted to touch my monitor and do things instead of clicking away ever since i’ve seen the touch screens for atms and monitors at the grocery store. Like touch the close button or minimize, or touch a tab on firefox, or simply press the start button, i mean no need for a mouse, just touching and tapping, opening applications to do this and that. I’ve always wanted to use my fingers and here is a pc that can do that <3. I have seen this pc before, the version 1, o_o had i known it was a touch screen i would have had my hands all over~ xD; At the time i though it was just a fancy all in one pc with a nice 22″ screen and stuff.

Version 2 with is awesome commercial made me go “wow, wish i could have one of those”..But now i might (might as in if by this weekend we goto best buy and they have it, the one i want that is) be able to get one of these suckers. For looks, for drawing (*cough* I mean for work), and entertainment!

But! Must not get my hopes up! <(oo^) Things always go wrong and i just know i might not even get it at all. But i can dream a little… Grandma says she will pay for it, it only depends if they have it in stock! I have decided to wait and buy it with grandma at best buy instead of buying it online and picking it up at the store. Figuring i shouldn’t push my luck.

Also i don’t want to hear anything that compares this to the iphone, or how “useless” this pc will be. It’s still a pc and just as good as the one i have with a dead overloaded hardrive. Only difference is, more ram, i can play with the gorram screen and draw on it!, comes with built-in tv tuner and comes with remote, wireless mouse and keyboard, AND it has a 22″ screen with high def <3! This pc is shibby, and if i’m going to get a new pc this has to be it!

The whole touch mode is nice, but i think i’ll be seeing the desktop part more often ^^. I’m not a power house pc user yet (^oo)> only because i use what i can get. But with this having 4gb of ram i think i can do more than i could with 1gb of ram~

A bit off topic but I did notice something! You buggered off on the forum! Post some more there. xD I miss you!

Oooh, I hope you’re able to get one! You’ll be able to do some awesome art on that (presuming you can use Adobe photoshop on it?) :D

I just got the verizon voyager with the touch screen on the front, and I love it. Touch screens are fun (if not always practical XD)
