Silicon Mountain announces a new pair of All-in-one LCD TVs

General

How’s this for a slice of fried gold? A 42″ LCD TV with a full 1080p HD picture and an integrated PC featuring an Intel Core2Duo E8400 processor, 4 GB of RAM, 1 TB hard drive, Blu-ray / DVD combo drive, integrated PVR and a 64-bit version of Windows Vista Home Premium. No, Dr. Frankenstein isn’t doing more crazy experiments – it’s Silicon Mountain this time. The TV / PC combo manufacturer has just announced a pair of additions to its line of all-in-one LCDs that finally packs some specs worth lusting over. Seriously, this thing is a beast. The new sets start at a very reasonable $1,600 and climb to $2,800 when specced out as described above. We also have word that Silicon Mountain may be working on another version that includes a hair drier, back massager and a kitchen sink, but that model isn’t due until next holiday season.

    I’m crying right now.

  • vaxick

    Bummer the actual LCD itself is very weak.

  • Jeremiah

    How do you mean weak??

    This thing would go perfectly in my dorm hahahaha

    As vaxick said, the contrast is only 1200:1 or 2000:1 with 400cd brightness so the screen isnt fantastic, tho Ive always liked the idea of a TV and PC in one, Elonex had brought out a 40″ TV/PC several years ago (the Elonex Lumia).

    Someone stick a panasonic screen into something like this please!!

  • Mr. Hopkins

    weak? it’s 1080.

  • Mr. Hopkins

    ppl get caught up in that numbers game those specs are decent. can u really tell the difference btwn 100,000:1 and 10,000:1. it’s kinda tough

  • DaiLo

    Can you still watch TV after Windows give you the “blue screen of death”?

    @ Dailo…why don’t you go tell Apple to make you one with Mac OSx on it? Then you wouldn’t have to complain.

  • Thomas

    Well it really depends on who you are, to some people it really does matter every little difference or improvement in picture quality, especially techno-geeks which I assume we all are considering we are reading this website!

    And the fact that you can get a seperate Panasonic plasma TV (with a considerabily better specs) and computer (with the same or better specs) for about half what this cost it doesnt make it that much of a deal. Dont get me wrong, a mark up with an All in one PC is expected because of space saving and convenience, but having weaker specs and a higher cost aint…

    Imagine this with a Pioneer Kuro screen…
