Its 19-inch touchscreen LCD display is supported by an nVidia GeForce Go 7600 graphics engine and thanks to the ATSC HDTV tuner, users can enjoy their favourite TV programme on an impressive HD resolution.

HP’s IQ770 Media Center PC boasts a new widget-like dashboard interface and several new functions, such as HP SmartCalendard which serves as a central point for virtual fridge notes and shared family calendars, as well as Photosmart Touch, a new image editing and printing interface.

Here goes the latest product on Hitachi’s portfolio - the Prius Air Type R TV Desktop PC. As you might already suspect, the “TV” name means that the PC is equipped with a TV tuner, thus allowing you to watch your favourite TV programme on its 17-inch (1280×1024) LCD display without having to leave your work desk. I supposed you’d also be able to record the show directly on its 160GB hard drive and later burn the movie on a DVD disc with the provided MultiDVD burner. As for the engine, the computer is powered by a 3.2GHz Intel Celeron D CPU and a 512MB of main memory.

Told you, there’d be a lot of affordable computers during this holiday season. The PC Station BJ Desktop Computer from Sotec, for example, is currently being offered at just 397 EUR. As a BTO product, you are free to choose and build your own configurations. The base config though, will feature an Intel Celeron D 326 (2.53GHz) processor, a 512MB of RAM, an integrated Intel graphics engine, a 160GB of hard drive, and a dual-layer DVD burner. No monitor included, but you can purchase the optional 19-inch LCD display if you want, of course, with an extra money from your pocket.
