WEBVTT 00:00:08.360 --> 00:00:15.879 this is a very exciting product from isus it is the brown box actually this 00:00:13.880 --> 00:00:22.039 is an Eco box which is why it's brown it contains 80% post consumer materials and 00:00:19.199 --> 00:00:26.480 100% recyclable cardboard which actually this is an important distinction because 00:00:24.359 --> 00:00:30.800 uh lots of things say made from recyclable or recycled materials but 00:00:28.679 --> 00:00:36.280 actually aren't made of very much recycled materials so this is the ET 00:00:33.480 --> 00:00:40.680 2410 which is part of a new series of all-in-one PCS from ASUS some of the 00:00:38.960 --> 00:00:45.480 highlights are going to be the overall build quality which obviously I haven't 00:00:43.559 --> 00:00:50.039 opened it yet but based on ASUS's materials they're saying it's pretty 00:00:47.320 --> 00:00:54.920 darn fine the metal stand which is part of the uh build quality discussion the 00:00:52.640 --> 00:01:00.519 updated specs so these are Next Generation or second generation standy 00:00:56.840 --> 00:01:03.719 Bridge processor parts and 00:01:00.519 --> 00:01:06.760 the Slick design of the units themselves 00:01:03.719 --> 00:01:08.479 now the one I have today is the et2410 00:01:06.760 --> 00:01:12.119 which is the 24 in actually here I'll just show you this slide because you 00:01:10.680 --> 00:01:18.439 guys might benefit from it so there's also the ET 2700 series which is 27 in 00:01:15.439 --> 00:01:20.799 includes dedicated NVIDIA GTX Graphics 00:01:18.439 --> 00:01:26.079 it has a blu-ray combo drive and 10-point multitouch okay the 2400 is 00:01:23.320 --> 00:01:30.360 multitouch and has this one hold on let me just check the spec of our unit 00:01:27.920 --> 00:01:35.759 anyway it's a higher spec than than the 22in model which is the most value 00:01:34.119 --> 00:01:42.320 oriented option out of the ones available so here let's have a look at the spec of our unit so this is a core 00:01:39.079 --> 00:01:44.439 i5 2310 so this is the higher end one it 00:01:42.320 --> 00:01:50.079 has Windows 7 Home Premium 6 gigs of RAM a 1 tbyte Drive Wireless N with 00:01:47.280 --> 00:01:54.600 Bluetooth and it is a 23.6 in touchcreen as I mentioned before it uses the 00:01:51.799 --> 00:01:59.079 integrated Intel Graphics which isn't necessarily a bad thing because Intel 00:01:56.680 --> 00:02:03.880 Graphics ever since they released sandybridge 00:02:00.479 --> 00:02:07.679 aren't nearly 00:02:03.880 --> 00:02:11.520 as much of a bottleneck as they used to 00:02:07.679 --> 00:02:14.720 be all right so why don't we have a look 00:02:11.520 --> 00:02:16.360 at the included accessories first before 00:02:14.720 --> 00:02:23.080 we take a closer look at the all-in-one so here we go 00:02:20.560 --> 00:02:27.400 included accessories we have a wireless mouse all right thanks for that ASUS 00:02:25.760 --> 00:02:32.160 it's got kind of a rubberized grippy feel to it all right's throw that in 00:02:29.640 --> 00:02:36.519 there we have a monstrous power brick remember this is not intended to be like 00:02:34.519 --> 00:02:41.280 super portable so it's fine that it's a little on the heavy side there for size 00:02:38.400 --> 00:02:47.879 comparison is the iPhone 4 there you go guys all right next we have a power 00:02:45.360 --> 00:02:53.080 cable which plugs into that power brick so I'll take that out and that's it for 00:02:50.120 --> 00:02:58.200 the things in here kind of a neat shaped box there you go see has kind of a shape 00:02:55.440 --> 00:03:05.040 to it and finally I think this is a keyboard yep we got a keyboard 00:03:00.440 --> 00:03:06.720 as well as a dongle which is for 00:03:05.040 --> 00:03:10.840 something oh you know what it's probably for the mouse and keyboard and batteries 00:03:08.560 --> 00:03:15.560 for the mouse and keyboard so here let's have a quick look at the keyboard itself 00:03:13.959 --> 00:03:23.239 wow it's quite heavy actually it doesn't feel like those uh sort of 00:03:19.400 --> 00:03:24.879 more less expensively manufactured ones 00:03:23.239 --> 00:03:29.080 that often come with these all-in-one type units it's got a little bit of flex 00:03:27.159 --> 00:03:33.760 to it but the overall feel is quite nice it's got some weight to it which is nice 00:03:31.319 --> 00:03:38.599 to see it's a chicklet style keyboard um nothing nothing particularly out you 00:03:36.080 --> 00:03:42.560 know outrageous to do with the layout here so it's got a nice long shift key 00:03:40.599 --> 00:03:46.360 it's got a full length tab full length backspace and full length enter so 00:03:44.360 --> 00:03:49.879 that's really good to see because it means that you will be able to reach all 00:03:48.480 --> 00:03:56.200 of the keys the way that you're normally used to we got a warranty card 00:03:52.079 --> 00:03:57.760 included all right and then next we have 00:03:56.200 --> 00:04:02.519 a quick start guide which is right here and seems to 00:04:00.480 --> 00:04:07.599 be fairly straightforward in terms of the steps included adjust the angle plug 00:04:04.720 --> 00:04:12.159 in the thing push the thing plug in that thing B those things to that thing and 00:04:10.280 --> 00:04:15.760 you're ready to go all right give me a sec to get this unpacked and then we'll 00:04:13.360 --> 00:04:18.639 have a look at the unit so here we are experiencing the setup process it 00:04:17.359 --> 00:04:25.800 actually comes with a variety of different languages that you can choose 00:04:20.759 --> 00:04:28.440 including uh Italiano France 00:04:25.800 --> 00:04:32.600 espol okay I have no idea okay Portuguese and nether 00:04:30.320 --> 00:04:36.720 Dutch Dutch I guess that must be Dutch okay so we are in 00:04:36.800 --> 00:04:44.759 Canada and syncing up the uh keyboard and the mouse was actually very very 00:04:42.000 --> 00:04:49.639 straightforward use a United States uh oh time and currency whoops no no 00:04:47.600 --> 00:04:53.600 English English Canada keyboard layout us there we go okay so once we're booted 00:04:51.680 --> 00:04:57.560 up I'll I'll I'll get this going here here we are in the setup process 00:04:56.160 --> 00:05:01.440 and you want to go ahead and accept the license terms which are required to use 00:04:59.160 --> 00:05:05.840 Windows and this one I'm not so sure about but apparently the Bing Bar I am 00:05:03.680 --> 00:05:11.400 required to accept that license in order to uh keep going here so actually hold 00:05:09.360 --> 00:05:15.360 on let's see will it let me go no I have to I have to install the Bing Bar in 00:05:12.800 --> 00:05:18.840 order to get booted up here so I'm going to just hold on to my 00:05:17.560 --> 00:05:26.520 cheat sheet here because that makes life a little bit easier for me so let's have a look at some of the design features 00:05:23.639 --> 00:05:29.720 that the et2410 features so first thing let's have a look at the overall 00:05:27.680 --> 00:05:35.479 thickness so the thickness is actually 6 CM so what's that 60 mm not bad at all 00:05:33.960 --> 00:05:40.560 actually here is an iPhone this is cameraman's iPhone you can tell cuz my 00:05:37.720 --> 00:05:44.759 Wicked uh carbon fiber sticker isn't on the back okay so there you go that's the 00:05:42.840 --> 00:05:50.520 overall thickness of the unit and then the size this is a 23.6 in 1080P LED 00:05:48.240 --> 00:05:55.479 back lit WID screen so I'm just going to show you guys sort of the approximate 00:05:52.960 --> 00:05:59.840 size against the iPhone which maybe isn't that useful I think everyone knows 00:05:57.319 --> 00:06:03.440 how big a 20 24in class monitor is at this point in time okay so let's go 00:06:01.639 --> 00:06:06.880 ahead and move around to let's do the back first well it goes ahead and 00:06:05.479 --> 00:06:13.000 installs drivers for me so there's a couple different things here first there's the metal stand so the metal 00:06:10.280 --> 00:06:16.400 stand allows you to position it on the table wherever you so desire okay it's 00:06:15.039 --> 00:06:20.360 got rubber feet on the bottom so it's not going to move it's actually fairly 00:06:18.360 --> 00:06:25.680 hard to to rock back and forth so it's not going to go anywhere and then you 00:06:21.919 --> 00:06:27.000 can also adjust the tilt of the monitor 00:06:25.680 --> 00:06:30.240 or the all-in-one I guess I shouldn't say monitor because it is an all-in-one 00:06:28.759 --> 00:06:34.960 and it is a monitor but more on that later um all the way from pointing a 00:06:32.520 --> 00:06:38.599 little bit face down to all the way back up like this so if you're actually 00:06:36.400 --> 00:06:41.880 sitting quite a bit above it like on a bar stool you'll still be fairly 00:06:40.479 --> 00:06:46.039 comfortable using it so it's got a pretty good angle overall there okay in 00:06:44.319 --> 00:06:49.199 terms of input and output options let's start on the side here this looks like 00:06:47.440 --> 00:06:55.280 an optical drive but bam it's not an optical drive it's stealth to inputs and 00:06:52.240 --> 00:06:58.479 uh outputs rather well both Okay so 00:06:55.280 --> 00:07:01.800 we've got two super speed USB 3 ports an 00:06:58.479 --> 00:07:03.960 EA port an SD slot headphones and 00:07:01.800 --> 00:07:08.520 microphone jacks all on the side of the unit for ease of access now around the 00:07:06.199 --> 00:07:12.800 back for more of your permanent fixtures we've got an additional three USB ports 00:07:11.199 --> 00:07:16.160 one of which we're using right now for the dongle for the included wireless 00:07:14.400 --> 00:07:20.919 keyboard and mouse we've got gigabit Ethernet now this is cool check this out 00:07:18.560 --> 00:07:27.840 HDMI out which is great if you wanted to add a second monitor HDMI and VGA in 00:07:25.000 --> 00:07:30.879 which is pretty darn cool if say for example okay here here's a US scenario 00:07:30.039 --> 00:07:37.639 for this you know what I'm going to come up with two right off the top of my head here one is let's say you have a 00:07:35.080 --> 00:07:41.560 boardroom like we do at ncx and you don't have a projector in your boardroom 00:07:39.280 --> 00:07:44.840 like we don't at NC and you use an Allin one PC because it's very convenient with 00:07:43.319 --> 00:07:48.759 the touchcreen and all that like we have at NCI let's say someone brought a 00:07:47.120 --> 00:07:53.479 laptop and they wanted to do a presentation instead of unplugging your 00:07:51.440 --> 00:07:56.960 allinone and moving it and rearranging everything what you could actually do is 00:07:55.400 --> 00:08:02.080 you could just plug it right into the HDMI or the VGA in on your in one PC in 00:08:00.280 --> 00:08:07.199 your boardroom and you could display an output from the uh from the laptop easy 00:08:04.919 --> 00:08:11.319 awesome and here's another scenario let's say your all-in-one PC is outdated 00:08:09.400 --> 00:08:14.680 we're talking like 3 four 5 years from now you know what you need to do the 00:08:12.680 --> 00:08:18.479 latest things with your computer it's not fast enough anymore that's cool it 00:08:16.879 --> 00:08:21.840 doesn't matter that it's not upgradeable this has always been a beef of mine with 00:08:19.960 --> 00:08:28.199 all-in-one PCS is that you can't upgrade them well now at least it's not a 00:08:25.319 --> 00:08:31.960 throwaway now it can still be a monitor and you have that additional computer 00:08:29.879 --> 00:08:35.760 functionality should you so require it maybe you have the computer on at all 00:08:33.959 --> 00:08:40.880 times for something else maybe now it's a it's like a dedicated download box or 00:08:38.440 --> 00:08:45.200 something like that but you can use the monitor for a higher powered PC right 00:08:43.279 --> 00:08:49.160 here is a cable management spot which the cameraman evidently missed when he 00:08:46.839 --> 00:08:53.680 was plugging in the power and finally we have a Kensington lock right about 00:08:51.640 --> 00:08:56.560 here and I think that pretty much does it for the back so let's move around to 00:08:55.279 --> 00:09:00.160 the other side I'm just going to go ahead and turn it all the way around for 00:08:58.279 --> 00:09:04.240 you guys here and there we go I don't think this is 00:09:02.600 --> 00:09:11.079 going oh yeah it did work okay there you have it so that's a DVD multi multi 00:09:07.399 --> 00:09:12.680 reader writer CD also multireader writer 00:09:11.079 --> 00:09:16.200 the higher end model comes with Blu-ray but this particular one does not and 00:09:14.680 --> 00:09:20.560 then finally let's have a look at the front so on the front we have our 00:09:18.040 --> 00:09:26.240 microphone in we've got our webcam we have as I mentioned before 00:09:23.240 --> 00:09:29.560 1080p LED backlit screen which is 00:09:26.240 --> 00:09:32.120 multi-touch and has no flex to it this 00:09:29.560 --> 00:09:38.800 is critical because instead of using a flimsy plastic layer that has that 00:09:35.120 --> 00:09:41.800 ripple effect and just is generally not 00:09:38.800 --> 00:09:45.560 very desirable we've got a nice solid 00:09:41.800 --> 00:09:47.800 feeling display surface that has no uh 00:09:45.560 --> 00:09:52.120 no Ripple that you can see on flat backgrounds and just looks great and 00:09:49.760 --> 00:09:56.240 when you press on it you actually don't see any discoloration of the screen 00:09:54.560 --> 00:10:00.560 Around Your Finger which is really nice as well cuz I hate that about some multi 00:09:58.760 --> 00:10:04.160 uh some touch screens when you touch them and they just go all discolored and 00:10:02.560 --> 00:10:07.800 look and look horrible so let's go around to the bottom of it here if you 00:10:06.040 --> 00:10:11.760 just want to come down here check out the bottom we've got our power button 00:10:09.160 --> 00:10:17.240 here our hard drive indicator we have a volume control here a menu button volume 00:10:15.079 --> 00:10:22.240 other more different control here and a mode button give me two seconds here 00:10:19.680 --> 00:10:27.440 guys so we're booted up into Windows now I'm going ahead and restarting okay the 00:10:25.959 --> 00:10:32.079 program that's not allowing us to restart is one that was going to automatically restart it in 20 seconds 00:10:30.360 --> 00:10:36.320 so I'm not too worried about that along the Bottom bar here we have our power 00:10:33.720 --> 00:10:40.279 button we also have our oh no I already said that we have a speaker bar along 00:10:38.279 --> 00:10:45.720 the very very bottom with our assus logo here and we also have a Windows 7 00:10:42.399 --> 00:10:48.000 sticker Core i5 energy star and DTS 00:10:45.720 --> 00:10:51.639 surround sensation Ultra PC so let me just see if I'm missing anything uh you 00:10:50.040 --> 00:10:56.240 know what let's have a look at the cooling so the exhaust fan is actually 00:10:54.079 --> 00:11:02.040 coming out of here you can see a long heat pipe that goes through a very wide 00:10:58.880 --> 00:11:04.600 it actually goes from here to here um 00:11:02.040 --> 00:11:09.079 fin array that is going to be cooling the CPU which if you guys remember is 00:11:07.480 --> 00:11:13.480 also the GPU and let me just see if there's 00:11:11.399 --> 00:11:17.079 anything that I am missing here okay I already mentioned it is a 00:11:15.760 --> 00:11:20.920 multi-touch I already mentioned it doubles as a monitor oh yeah it has wall 00:11:18.880 --> 00:11:25.040 mount capability so if you pull this guy off you can actually buy a wall mount 00:11:22.680 --> 00:11:31.240 from auss and you can use it as a PO display for example so that's kind of 00:11:27.000 --> 00:11:31.240 neat as well uh last but not least 00:11:33.639 --> 00:11:37.760 least oh cool comes with ASUS web 00:11:36.639 --> 00:11:43.160 storage as well that's actually something that they're bundling in with a few of their products these days 00:11:40.120 --> 00:11:46.160 including the EAD Transformer so there's 00:11:43.160 --> 00:11:48.920 uh something that I had missed before 00:11:46.160 --> 00:11:52.639 and okay let's just take it in then go ahead and go around to the other side 00:11:50.399 --> 00:11:57.399 we've actually finally got it booted up fully here and uh running in the proper 00:11:55.560 --> 00:12:01.800 resolution so do I want to use the assus screen saver not particularly oh yeah I 00:12:00.240 --> 00:12:07.279 really like this screen actually this is pretty good so let's go ahead and launch 00:12:04.519 --> 00:12:11.399 e- paint here you know what I really want to do is I want to set up the 00:12:09.279 --> 00:12:16.120 Windows 8 preview on this thing so that we can really check out how a proper 00:12:14.120 --> 00:12:23.600 properly touchscreen optimized OS is going to run on a machine like this 00:12:20.000 --> 00:12:26.680 uh so we can oh okay I'm clearly Doing 00:12:23.600 --> 00:12:29.720 It Wrong let's use that and draw Green 00:12:26.680 --> 00:12:31.519 woo oh that's very responsive actually 00:12:29.720 --> 00:12:36.600 look at that I wonder how many how many multi- touches do we get oh I think this 00:12:33.639 --> 00:12:39.760 app only supports uh single touch let's see yeah single touch for this 00:12:38.040 --> 00:12:43.800 particular application but it's very very responsive and very very smooth you 00:12:42.000 --> 00:12:48.040 can see how long it takes to trace after me that's not bad at all it's a very 00:12:46.360 --> 00:12:50.639 compelling looking little setup too very clean because it comes with all the 00:12:49.440 --> 00:12:54.760 wireless peripherals that you're going to need and I think that pretty much 00:12:52.920 --> 00:12:59.720 covers everything I wanted to say
