p class=cmt_contentsI#039;m sorry for the following rant but anything that does not get you premium HD content is a half-a$$ed device. unless of course your idea of HD is watching your local news team? Eyetv#039;s entire lineup falls short of providing a path for accessing full HD TV.brs-video?! component?! are you kidding me? is this a tech blog or stay at home moms learning to browse the internets? brEyeTV is garbage, and you should be ashamed for using it for HD tv viewing. Although, their devices are excusable if you are encoding vhs or other media I suppose. I tried the eyetv 250 hdplus super duper blah blah and it was had a significant delay and was choppy at times in display the few hd cable channels it could carry. For anyone who is used to real hd content, this is a joke. I#039;ll stick to fancast, hulu, netflix etc.brAdditionally I think its ridiculous that I cannot play other sources on the imac- no real hd tv options (especially if your talking about HBO or NFLhd etc), you cannot hook up an xbox/ps3 to it. does apple really think I am going to go to the itunes store if they just lock out other sources?bras a pc user who wanted a new toy the 27iMac is beautiful but I feel handcuffed./pSony L Series All-In-One Touch-Enabled HD TV/PC At CES 2010/h1brbr

pTouchscreen devices are all the rage right now and when you throw in a quad band processor, blu-ray and top notch graphics, what you end up with is a Sony All-In-One L Seriesd desktop that#8217;s worth a closer look./p
pThe Sony L Series All-In-One was shown off at CES 2010 and offers a blu-ray drive, while running on an Intel Core 2 Quad processor, showing off a NVIDIA graphics card and an NTSC / ATSC TV Tuner./p
pThe screen in question is a 24 inch (16:9) Widescreen HD display that offers smooth touchscreen interfacing with quick response times and overall great output for both videos and desktop applications./p

Somewhere between a top of the line HDTV and a laptop comes this Sony all in one. They are leaders in this market because they#039;re essentially bringing their two strongest products together into one super desktop. In this review I#039;m taking a look at Sony#039;s VAIO VGC-LT29U 22 PC/TV All-in-one. This wall mountable 22 desktop is loaded and comes at a premium. I#039;m going to let you know just how capable it is and if it is worth all that cash. Let me start with a few of the basics.br /br /strongHardware:/strongbr /br /Display: 22 LCD XBritebr /br /Tuner: ATI TV Wonder (both NTSC and ATSC tuner)br /br /Processor: 2.50 GHz Penryn Intel Core 2 Duo T9300 processorbr /br /Storage Space: 1 TB hard drivebr /br /RAM: 4GB RAM (un-expandable)br /br /Optical Drive: CD R/RW DVD R RW +/- with integrated Blu-Ray Burner and reader br /br /Graphics Accelerator: Nvidia GeForce Go 8400 graphicsbr /br /Operating System: Windows Home Vista Ultimatebr /br /In the Box: An IR remote, as well as a wireless mouse and keyboard.br /br /This truly can do everything. If you#039;re interested in an All in one desktop television then this is your machine. The 22 display is clear and bright. It as good as any of Sony#039;s Bravia televisions and the integrated tuner makes sure you#039;ll have no trouble making those comparisons. It has plenty of hard drive space with a TB of storage. This is literally your high definition Blu-Ray player, digital video recorder, computer, and entertainment system all in one killer package.br /br /It has a great video card, the only thing that is a little unfortunate is the Penryn, in my opinion it is a little slower than I would like to see, but does its job fine here. For the most part there really aren#039;t too many criticisms of this Sony all in one. br /br /strongConnectivity:/strongbr /br /5 2.0 USB ports (for connecting to printers, digital cameras or MP3 players)br /br /WiFi (connect wirelessly to your LAN)br /br /1 FireWire (connect your digital camcorder)br /br /ExpressCardbr /br /PCMCIA br /br /1 standard audio out as well as optical audio out and 1 mic inbr /br /1 Modem inputbr /br /1 Ethernet inputbr /br /1 SD / Memory Card Slotbr /br /There obviously needs to be fewer connectivity options with this desktop thanks to the integrated monitor and mount ability. You don#039;t really want to have a lot of wires hanging off what basically amounts to a sexy piece of art. The bottom line is I can#039;t really imagine anyone that would be disappointed in this desktop. It is going to look great in any situation, in your rec room, in your kitchen, in your living room or bed room. It will do your office work, and it will play whatever game you toss at it, it#039;s just going to do it all. The price reflects how loaded it really is. At a fairly firm $3200 unfortunately you#039;ll need fairly deep pockets to bring the Sony VAIO VGC-LT29U home. However if you can afford it, you#039;ll like it.
