5.0 out of 5 stars
Great for office use, October 14, 2009
This review is from: ViewSonic VPC100 19-Inch LCD Display All-in-One Desktop PC ( 1.6GHz Intel Atom Processor, Windows XP Home) (Electronics)
Well actually I`m reviewing MSI`s Ap1900([...]) But is the same computer, with slightly different front and keyboard.
This is an atom powered computer, so you should not expect a multimedia powerhouse. The device is suitable mainly for two things in my opinion:
1. Light office work: mainly email, spreadsheets, word processing and browsing. (I would say 95% of what an average user needs)
2. Basic home user. For small children, older parents is easy to configure, multimedia capabilities are ok.
The advantages of the system in my case are: price. I got it for [...] , which compared with more expensive all in one`s that will do the same task is a big saving. The system does not require too much space, is easy to configure, includes everything from webcam, memory slots, dvd burner. The display is good, the energy consumption is low and is an almost noiseless all in one. Other advantage for me is that the display is not glossy, that for office use is very convenient.
The keyboard and mouse can be upgraded, probably this is the only drawback of this system. If you can get this computer at the right price is a great computer, in my office we bought 4 and everybody is very happy. Obviously they are not power users.

2.0 out of 5 stars
Its already freezing up after 1 hour of use, September 30, 2009
This review is from: ViewSonic VPC100 19-Inch LCD Display All-in-One Desktop PC ( 1.6GHz Intel Atom Processor, Windows XP Home) (Electronics)
I thought this computer would be great to use around the house. I expected it to be better than a laptop because it would be portable around the house, and still give me the desktop feel and the larger screen. I have had it about an hour and its already freezing up on me. It shuts down the internet with no warning while you are doing something. I feel like I am on slow speed. I don't know if its because it has a really slow processor, or what. When I hit right click to copy something it freezes. I don't know if I just got a bad one, or if they are all like this. I just called to return mine.
