If you want the full power of the PC on your TV but want to keep things simple then the Allio all in one HDTV PC could be want you want. On the show floor I saw a demo of the Allio 42 inch unit and the Allio 32 inch which has an integrated touch screen. The Allio works great with Media Center and its a great way of getting web content on to the TV without having to have any special UI

  1. Very nice Ian…. Great concept… Nice for High rise and condo’s in Chicago, New York, Miami and Boston :). Would mesh nicely with Mcontrol and Lutron. Also does it have bluetooth for wireless headsets and synch?

    Great job!

  2. Ian, I have checked ALLIO’s website and they don’t make mention of a touchscreen version. Was the floor model the only one that had this capability?
