As much as I love my Apple-products, especially my iMac, I have to admit that the new Asus All-In-Ones do look pretty god damn great! Yes, the iMac is still miles better looking, but honestly - the Asus has one of my most wished for features in an iMac - HDMI input. Secondly, it has a built-in TV tuner. How cool is that? And for those of you who like smudgy fingerprints all over the screen, it does have a touchscreen display.
I remember buying my iMac with the Kanex XD in mind, for being able to use it as a display for my XBOX. Seeing as Kanex never developed a Thunderbolt-compatible Kanex XD, that never happened. It makes me seriously annoyed that Apple won't offer the same functionality as the Asus AIO in their iMacs. I mean, even the Twentieth Anniversary Mac offered a TV-tuner, and it was not the first to do so either.
If only Apple had an iMac with HDMI input... I wouldn't even be looking at PC's... Not that I'd buy one anyway, but the Asus does make me a bit jelly...
What do you guys think of the Asus?
...I know, in the end of the day it's still a PC which uses Windows. That said, do you think Apple will ever offer a true "All-in-one experience"?
