HP TouchSmart 310 a media-savvy multitouch machine where it balances polish and performances with a simple touch interface that belies a capable PC where normal user could afford to buy and use it, unlike the stuktable.
HP TouchSmart is an impressive multitouch interface and integrated HDTV tuner however it has a frustrating port placement and doesnt have a true 1080p display. 1080p display
HP TouchSmart is a multitouch-capable jack-of-all trades designed to do a little bit of everything. It already comes with a 20inch display and equally adept at streaming videos, movies and slinging spreadsheet. The TouchSmart unit comes equipped with a 2.5GHz Athlon X4 615e CPU, 6GB of DDR3 RAM and ATI Radeon HD 4270 graphics.
The TouchSmart handles television and movies with aplomb, but gamers should not expect to play anything more demanding than simple Flash games. This is due to the unplayable average frame rate of 20fps.
Unfortunately, using the touchscreen to type or to browse the Internet is more trouble than it's worth. But you can plug in a mouse and a keyboard to make workstation chores--answering e-mail, editing documents, and the like--less burdensome. Alas, the peripherals bundled with the TouchSmart 310 aren't wireless--a feature we've come to expect with all-in-ones.
The TouchSmart 310 is designed to function as a midlevel media center: Its recessed DVD burner complements a 1TB hard drive and an SD Card reader. Video playback looked great on the 20-inch touchscreen, though the maximum resolution of 1600 by 900 can't deliver true 1080p fidelity.
In addition to the aforementioned optical drive and card reader, the SmartTouch 310 sports line-in and headphone jacks in the right panel, and a pair of USB 2.0 ports in the left. On the rear of the unit, you'll find four more USB 2.0 ports, a gigabit ethernet port, and a built-in TV tuner. An integrated Webcam/microphone combo peeks out from atop the 20-inch display, and you can plug in a separate infrared sensor if you prefer to use a handheld remote with your media center.
