Lenovo's $1,449 IdeaCentre A720 has all the trappings of a next-generation all-in-one desktop. It has a glossy, 27-inch display with 10-point touch recognition. A well-designed hinge lets you turn the screen into a tabletop PC. It even has some touch software you might actually want to use, at least for a while. You'll find that the shine on this system doesn't last very long, though, due to its less-than-stellar touch input and a limited selection of touch-specific applications. This system might be your best bet at the moment if you want a touch-screen PC to upgrade to Windows 8 once it ships. You'd be smarter to wait to see what the full field looks like closer to Windows 8's October launch.
At least for its hardware, the IdeaCentre A720 sounds like it should be one of the most fully realized touch-screen PCs around. It's one of the first 27-inch all-in-ones with 10-point touch input, and its large, adjustable screen -- so adjustable it's one of the only all-in-ones with a screen that can lie down flat -- seems to offer plenty of opportunity for different kinds of single and lenova a-720multiuser applications.
