Scheduled to be available in June from $699, the IdeaCentre B340 All-in-One desktop PC features a 21.5” full HD touch-screen display with IdeaTouch for multimedia apps. In my town or even in my country, people prefer to configure and install their own PC by buying computer hardwares piece by piece. They buy motherboard, processor, case, monitor, keyboard, mouse, etc. and then they bring it home or let the shop operator install all of the parts for free. But I think the trend is changing now. Just like a smartphone, desktop PC should be as simple as possible, compact and rigid. The AIO comes with that’s idea, and it’s even packed with TV functionality just like the IdeaCentre B340 from Lenovo.
The IdeaCenter B340 allows users to switch between TV and PC mode with a single click of button, thanks to the OneKey TV feature. And users are still able to watch TV while the PC is off, that’s pretty cool right? Other features those you can expect include the Lenovo High-Sense (720p HD) Webcam, and a DVD reader or Blu-ray Disc™ drive. And last but not least, it will be based on Intel Core processor family and NVIDA graphic chipset.

Lenovo said that the ThinkCentre Edge 91z is deployed by one of the world’s leading architectur firms, Satoshi Ohashi. I’m not an architect, but I used to be an architecture student in the past, so I little know the requirement of architecture tasks. Most of them works with graphic application such as Autocad, Autodek Revit, Photoshop, Archicad, 3DS Max, SketchUp, and/or other similar softwares. The more powerful the PC used, the faster the tasks can be completed.
With pricing starts from $799, the minimum specs of ThinkCentre Edge 91z are: Intel Core i3-2100 (3.1 GHz, 3 MB L3 Cache); 1GB DDR3 system memory; and Intel HD Graphics (Integrated). Uhm.. I think its basic specification doesn’t meet the top leading architect’s workload, am I wrong? So what are the maximum specs? Let’ see: Intel Core i7-2600S (2.8 GHz, 8 MB L3 cache); 8 GB DDR3 system memory; and AMD Radeon HD665OA 1GB. And yes, the maximum specs are very architect-friendly.
