Dell's latest all-in-one is yet to show up on the company's US pages, with Japan sneaking a lead, but we expect the Windows 7 desktop to make its North American appearance in short order. The Dell Inspiron One 19 lacks any sort of fancy multitouch support for the new OS, but does squeeze in a choice of 2.6GHz or 2.93GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processors, up to 4GB of RAM, up to 500GB storage and a DVD burner, all hiding behind an 18.5-inch 1366 x 768 LCD display.

Dell Inspiron One 19 all-in-one gets Japanese launch
ASUS EeeTop PC ET2002 Review
Back when we reviewed the ASUS Eee Top ET1602 late last year, we suggested it could be the epitome of a niche product: netbook hardware squeezed into an unusual desktop case. Now all-in-ones are more common, and so ASUS have returned with an updated design, bigger screen and more media-centric intentions. The ASUS Eee Top ET2002-B024C sticks with Intel’s Atom CPU range but now pairs it with NVIDIA’s Ion graphics chipset for potentially 1080p High-Definition performance. Check out the full SlashGear review after the cut.

Sony VAIO L Touch HD PC/TV multitouch all-in-one debuts
"Touch me, touch me" sang 80s legend Samantha Fox, "I want to feel your body," and while the intentions of Sony's new VAIO L Series of touchscreen desktops may be different, the sentiment is just the same. Announced alongside the skinny VAIO X, the L Series is being pushed - like other big-screen all-in-one PCs in Sony's past - as a hybrid HDTV and computer, though with its 24-inch 1920 x 1080 display, optional Blu-ray and optional TV tuners we suppose it does have more of a claim than most. As for the touchscreen, that's used not only for Windows 7's multitouch functionality but to control Sony's own Media Gallery DVR app.
