magnumkp 0 Posted March 11, 2003 Share Posted March 11, 2003 Anyone know somewhere where I can buy a pc like the flat screen types you get in some hotels and internet cafes? One of my clients wants to fit one in his bar, and I've searched on the net, but got no ideas thus far. Ideally it should all be self contained, and only really needs to link to the net so visitors can send/receive emails. Something like this that can be fixed to the wall: or I'm in the UK if that is any help... C'mon guys, someones got to know. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RooK 0 Posted March 11, 2003 Share Posted March 11, 2003 Are you talking about a LCD monitor, or a PC contained within the monitor? The former you should be able to find anywhere, the latter you'll have to look around. It seems IBM made some at one time, I also remember seeing a few at CompUSA way back. Best bet is too give a look around to everyone who assembles/sales PCs and see if they might have a model that is similar. Upgradability on them is severly limited, not to mention expensive since it has an LCD screen. I Think you'd be best off just buying the LCD monitor and a seperate, compact PC unit.

Dark Ranger 0 Posted March 11, 2003 Share Posted March 11, 2003 Magnumkp, I have also seen a "computer in a keyboard". Somehow, they cram your Hard Drive, Ram, motherboard, and all the components into a bit larger-than-life keyboard. IIRC, it has a VGA output on the back, not a DVI. So you'd be in the same situation as with the computer in the LCD panel, as RooK mentioned: not much upgradeability, and mucho pesos. Ever thought about a laptop?

magnumkp 0 Posted March 11, 2003 Author Share Posted March 11, 2003 Thanks for the help. Rook it was a pc in a monitor, so thanks. I'll send the guy a few suggestions and see what he wants. Oh the trials and tribulations *sigh* Quote Link to post Share on other sites
