Tweet

Yesterday we offered you a heads up concerning HP’s latest AIO PC, namely the HP Pavilion MS200 AIO, but if you’re looking for touchscreen functionality, alas, you’ll find yourself looking elsewhere – perhaps in the direction of MSI’s latest Wind Top AIO PC known the MSI AE2200.

Coming with a 21.6″ 16:9 aspect ratio, 1920 x 1080 resolution touchscreen display the MSI AE2200, which is based on Intel’s G45 chipset, comes with Intel Pentium Dual Core E5400 CPU paired with 4GB DDRII 800MHz SDRAM memory (which, incidentally, we should add, cannot be expanded due to no free memory slots being available) as well as integrated Intel GMA X4500HD graphics, a 5400rpm 500GB SATA hard disk and DVD Super Multi Rewriter Drive which, all said an done, may not amount to a powerhouse of a device but is pretty reasonable when compared with a great many AIO PCs currently doing the rounds.

Obviously, in being an AIO PC, the MSI AE2200 naturally additionally offers up Gigabit LAN and well as integrated WLAN (802.11b/g/n – nice the see Draft N represented) as well as the equally obligatory 1.3 megapixel webcam and 4-in-1 card reader whilst, in terms of audio capabilities, there’s built-in stereo speakers rated at 5W apiece though should you want to out the audio to a somewhat more capable speaker setup you’ll be happy to know that the MSI AE2200 additionally offers 7.1 channel surround sound support complete with SRS sound processing technology.

And, whilst we’re talking of connectivity, the MSI AE2200 offers pretty a extensive array of ports taking in E-SATA, SPDIF, HDMI, VGA, headphone and microphone ports though the number of USB ports on offer – just the two – is a little disappointing.

The MSI ‘Wind Top’ AE2200 will set you back from around $800 which, considering what’s on offer here, is hardly a King’s ransom.
