Sony launches VAIO L Series media PC with full HD touchscreen
It's fair to say media PCs that apsire to being your one-stop solution for all your home entertainment needs have yet to set the AV world alight.
Nevertheless, Sony's latest effort, the VAIO L Series, certainly sounds good on paper.
The focal point is the 24in X-black LCD display, complete with 1920 x 1080 full HD resolution and touchscreen controls.
Using the touchpanel support within Windows 7 you can navigate your way around the built-in hard disk to access videos, images, music and more.
Offered with a built-in Blu-ray disk reader/burner, HDMI inputs and integrated speakers and digital amplifier, it's hoping to be your home cinema hub.
Software on board includes a new Music Player and Media Gallery, plus VAIO Movie Story for editing your own content. It's all accessed via the VAIO Gate interface.
The Sony VAIO L Series media PC will be available from the 22nd of October 2009.

Nice idea, but it's hardly going to be a home cinema hub with a 24" screen is it?
It'd never work in my house. Every time I touched the screen to select something my girlfriend would want to clean it!
