Shuttle X50 All-in-One Looks Good

Published on 01/10/2009

[CES 2009] All-in-one computers seem to be really taking off these days with Asus taking the lead by the sheer number of models available with Shuttle jumping aboard the bandwagon as well. The Shuttle X50 is a self-sufficient computer by itself that can be hung on a wall if you want to, but what is the point of that? It is powered by an Intel Atom processor with an Intel 945 graphics chipset, accompanied by the following :-

• 1GB RAM
• 80GB hard drive
• 5.1 channel HD audio
• 15.6" touchscreen LCD display
• 1.3 megapixel webcam
• Five USB 2.0 ports
• SD/MMC/XD/MS slots
• Built-in speakers
• Stylus

The X50 has its own user interface that can be switched from Windows XP Professional back and forth. This allows you to access various popular programs like Instant Messengers and VoIP clients easily, although you won't save much in terms of time as you can easily add shortcuts to your Windows desktop. The Shuttle X50 will retail for $499, which ain't too shabby considering the rather generous touchscreen display that lends an air of sophistication to your kitchen/living room. The stand behind doubles up as a handle for easy transportation.
