SmiechThe LG Chrome base takes the Chromebox concept a step further, and builds it into an all-in-one desktop.
The 21.5 -inch In-Plane-Switching (IPS) xdisplay has a 1,920-by-1,080 resolution. The IPS screen is pretty amazing on its own at this price, and offers excellent color quality and viewing angles. It lacks touch capability, but doesn't really need it, since Chorme isn't reliant on touch the way Windows 8 or Android is.
Built into the screen is a feature called Reader Mode whitch adjusts the color output to reduce the blue glow that causes eye fatigue and can disrupt sleep patterns.
There's a single USB 3.0 port and headset jack on the front right edge of the system. Above the display is a built-in HD webcam, which captures video at 720p. On the back you'll find three USB ports (two of which will be occuped with the wired keyboard and mouse) a Gigabit Ethernet port, and HDMI input. A kensington lock slot lets you physically secure the system.
Any way, it's worth considering the LG Chromebase.
