Allio 42-inch HDTV with built-in PC and Blu-ray player

Well, we spurned the idea of a PC under our TVs, so will the Allio HDTV with built-in PC and Blu-ray player make a mark? Well, it just might. If you spend your evenings watching TV with a notebook on your lap, you'll no doubt love the idea of a 42-inch 1080p TV mixing it up with a high spec PC, specifically one with an Intel Core 2 Duo processor, 4GB of memory, a massive 1TB of storage and Windows Vista Premium. Obviously there's plenty of connectivity too, including wireless networking, should you want to stream direct to your big TV and split screen/picture-in-picture options will offer multi-tasking heaven. But the cherry on the top has got to be the Blu-ray player, making this the first high-def all-in-one to hit the market. Ok, it just might be hell to upgrade or repair the TV, but let's not dwell on that for now. Silicon Mountain is offering up six configurations of the TV, starting at $1,599.99 for the 32-inch model, jumping to $2,799 for the big boy. No news of a UK ... (link)
