I have a need for a touch screen PC that I can attach to the wall in the Kitchen for browsing and watching TV with perhaps a shopping list also. We also want to be able to run a Media Portal TV client on it. MP has a standalone TV client that seems to be fairly light on resources. The ideal is a touch screen based PC that has everything incorporated into the screen rather than a seperate PC box and screen.
Looking around, the most useful option seems to be the ASUS ET1602 or the MSI equivalent. I reviewed the Shuttle X50 but it did not stack up as well as the ASUS or the MSI in the reviews that I read. Each of these run the Atom PC which is certainly not the fastest option, but given that we are not looking for a desktop machine, perhaps this is good enough.
I wondered if anyone else has been down this path and found an option that works reasonably well. One of the main aspects is the ability to connect the screen to a wall mounted stand!
Let me know if you have any suggestions.
Cheers Mike
