Lenovo IdeaCentre A310 All In One PC

Lenovo IdeaCentre A310 design is clearly the echoes of the PowerPC G4-generation iMac, thanks to the pearl-white chassis, and the fact that the components are located in the base, rather than behind the screen. That's not to say, but it looks dated, and the monitor-black bezel with silver outline offsets his beautiful white body.

Set-up is incredibly simple. It uses an external power supply, so you just plug the power cord into the base to get things going and there is a power button on the base station.

The keyboard and mouse are wireless and Bluetooth-powered Wi-Fi while on board for the networking, so it is free stuff. All this weighs only 9.5 kg, they are picked up and easily, which can move in for a machine that is very easy, between points in a home.

The 21.5in screen is less than an inch thick and is at the base of a silver rear right arm is attached. This allows the display from side to side tilt and rotate back and forth, resulting in a slight advantage over the current iMac in this respect. There are no height adjustment, and if not multi-touch action is here - it is a conventional screen.

The display is constructed with LED-backlit display and a full HD resolution of 1,920 x 1,080 to see the fast a standard we expect, has, instead of hope. There is a Webcam and microphone built into the panel at the top, while at the bottom there are indicators of the activity of the hard drive, Bluetooth and the integrated 802.11n Wi-Fi. On the right page you will find touch-screen controls for the display of the OSD.
