Lenovo IdeaCentre B540

The Lenovo IdeaCentre B540 ($899 list) is a moderately priced touch-screen all-in-one desktop PC with a decent, if unremarkable, feature set. For about $900, you get a full touch-screen Windows 8 experience on a nicely equipped, nicely designed system....

Touch screen. Nice price. No external power brick. Easy to service

No DX11 due to older Intel HD Graphics 2000. Could use more tilt range. USB 3.0 ports in back. Only HDMI-out. No Blu-ray

The Lenovo IdeaCentre B540 all-in-one PC is one of the less expensive ways to get a true Windows 8 experience with a large screen. You do give up a little compared to more expensive all in ones, but it's still a decent buy all the same.

The touchscreen is responsive, and Windows 8 makes everything smooth and easy to use

Many of the best features are optional and add extra costs to your computer, such as a Blu-ray reader/writer or TV tuner

As an affordable all-in-one PC, the Lenovo IdeaCentre B540 offers excellent quality and terrific performance, but to get the best features, you'll have to spend a little more than the base price.

Purchased a B540 and exchanged it in less that 48 hours for another B540. Probable hard drive crash. The second B540 lasted less than a month exhibiting the same problems. Spoke to service rep and he said to bring it in and the manager should be able...
