Touch screen LCD technology found in Apple’s iPhone could also be found on HP TouchSmart desktop computers. Most people think that Apple’s going to be the pioneer also of this technology in desktop computers which is being used in iPhone’s or iPod Touch. This was predicted by Internet guru’s and gossipers a like.

Contrary to that belief HP TouchSmart line of products have been ahead of Apple in touch screen enabled desktop computer. TouchSmart Desktop computer comes with built-in Core 2 Duo processor and 22-inch widescreen monitors. The applications, photos, videos, music collections and others could be launched or opened with touch screen technology. This means that with a tap or a flick of a finger one could maneuver through the applications.

The TouchSmart have wireless keyboard and mouse, and 802.11b/g WiFi plus Bluetooth which makes it possible to use only a single wire and that is the power cable for the LCD screen. Additional wires of course will come with additional functionality such as built-in TV tuner or video recorder. Another would be a wireless router or Ethernet cable for Internet connection.

So how’s the price? Regular price might go as high as 1,500$ US. If your are in a temporary financial crunch then 0 apr credit cards would really be a great help until you’re finances are stable already. Another would be to ask some temporary credit extension from you card provider.

There are instances when one credit card offers easy monthly zero percent payment options which another doesn’t have. This is especially true with some of the local banks which is unlike those big names such as CITIBank or AMEX. It would be good to compare credit card offers prior to getting one. This is a practice which should be made a rule when it comes to shopping.

The HP TouchSmart isn’t a perfect product at all. I am hoping that prices will go down on this item or my credit card company will offer credit cards with cash back promotions. These are great opportunity to finance a purchase of a wonderful technology.

If you haven’t known yet the TouchSmart desktop have 4GB of memory, 500GB hard disk, and Windows Vista Home Premium 64-Bit Edition in a package. The specifications are suitable for multimedia and productivity work. This might not be a candidate for high-speed gaming. Prices are comparable with some iMac, but only with a bigger screen, bigger disk storage, more memory, TV-tuner, and especially LCD touch screen technology. Even if Apple will go with LCD technology enabled desktop computer, HP have gained a significant lead in this area.
