The Lenovo IdeaCentre A700 all-in-one desktop begins at to a lesser degree $900. These brushup configuration carries a producer advised retail cost by $1,599. Lenovo barely acquainted afresh brush up by the high-end A700; the Blu-ray drive is switched come out as a DVD+/-RW and RAM is pushed down to 4GB. The CPU is raised to an Intel Core i7-740QM being given at 1.73GHz - just blithely the altogether setup got a rebate to the tune from $350, getting in at $1,249. Build up and aim
Lenovo presently oblations all-in-one desktops in three primary systems: the nettop ‘C' series, which uses humbler screens and low-end Atom C.P.U.s to dramatically bring down the cost, the desktop-class ‘B' series, which applies desktop-class computer hardware to live up to operation addicts looking for bring through a few board, and the design-focused ‘A' series, which Lenovo applies to advertise the boundses in conditions of aim, trespassing by laptop computer- and mobile-class computer hardware called for to examine new form factors.
It's a smart way of doing business, since it means that the A series can be applied all but surgically, to examine new designs and new ways of engineering a desktop. Then, those aims that bear witness successful and/or commercially viable can be moved down to the ‘B' series. Subsequently a few refinement, and replacing high-end finishes with lower-cost alternatives, those designs can and then be advanced to the entry-level ‘C' series. While the IdeaCentre A700 isn't quite the looker that the A600 equaled, it's an attractive piece of equipment in its own right. It's regrettable that Lenovo accepted a more generic look therein model, though, as it's almost hard to tell the difference between this machine, and contending models from HP or Gateway/Acer.
Despite accepting a slimmer profile than some members of its ‘B' series, the A700 still packs many features into its attractive frame. A speaker grille sits on the bottom front of the machine, playing a rudimentary soundbar for the desktop. The screen sits on top and almost looks like it's attending slump on top; the effect is even more marked when the machine is viewed from the side. A slot-loading optical drive helps give the A700 a classier feel than some competing products, and that level of sophistication continues into the stand that supports the machine.

Clad in a silvery metal, the stand feels solid - it's just regrettable that it's hidden away behind the machine where few people will ever see it. There's also a hole cover the middle that lets users drape the power cord through the stand, rather than clumsily winding around it. In point of fact, the only real annoyance with the design of the IdeaCentre A700 is where the stand is located. Or perhaps more properly, the problem is where the inputs that it covers are located. Most of the inputs, outputs and other assorted expandability are placed in such as a style that it's hard to access them without considerably running either the desktop or the stand.
Stimulations and expandability
As adverted, the A700 makes no compromises when it bears on the number by ports and inputs a desktop traditionally bids. On the left side of the machine is a bevy of easily accessible inputs, including two USB 2.0 ports, a mini-IEEE1394 (FireWire) port, headphone and microphone jacks, an eSATA port and a 6-in-1 card reader. The right side of the machine exhibitionists the slot-loading Blu-ray ROM/DVD+/-RW optical drive also as its accompanying eject button. Behind the stand on the rear of the machine is where all of the excitement happens - the A700 has a administer to exhibitionist. Just above the port shield is a Kensington lock slot. Below that are four more USB 2.0 ports, a Gigabit Ethernet jack, S/PDIF optical audio out, coax cable in, composite video in, stereo audio in, HDMI in, HDMI out and power in.

There's also a keyboard and mouse sync button. The many additional video and audio ports can be attributed to both the TV tuner likewise as the dual-purpose display unit inside of the A700. Not only is the desktop capable of receiving ATSC and ClearQAM broadcasts, but it can be used as a standalone display for external devices such a cable or satellite box, Xbox 360 (HDMI) or Nintendo Wii (Composite video and stereo audio in).
