Lenovo IdeaCentre A720

Giant tablet or powerful PC?
27" multitouch (10 points) screen.

In my opinion 1080 pixels vertical is little bit too low for such large screen.

If you'd like a better resolution, the only option is an iMac 27" and those are far too expensive for most people.

I don't think the iMac 27" supports touch?

No, but then again I don't see the benefit of a 27" touch screen desktop monitor. Wall-mount it for presentation uses? Certainly. Embed it into a desk with a glass cover? Hell yes. Put it on a desktop stand and use a mouse and keyboard? Mmmm, not so much.

In US$ terms the iMac seems to pwn the lenovo, better CPU, higher res display, better gpu, lower price. I'm no Apple fanboy but I would rather buy a 27" iMac before I even considered the lenovo.

I agree with ponder, but MAC is typical PC. This one is designed for something different, read comments below.

It looks like it can be used as a giant tablet. Screen can be folded down flat, couple peaple can play game around the table. Then multitouch is important. It could be great entertaining device, depends on applications.
