Ended up getting 4 Acer All in One 23" touchscreens at work this past week. Getting them set up for a tradeshow.
They are the Acer Aspire 5600U's. They were $999 from NewEgg for Core i3-3110m, 8gb ram, 1TB hard drive, Intel HD400 graphics, DVD burner, 23" 1080p 10 point touchscreen, Windows 8, USB 3, card reader, with wireless keyboard and mouse.
Complaints:
#1 fingerprints on the glass screen are horrible.
#2 No onscreen keyboard for classic desktop apps...so you have to switch between screen and keyboard.
#3 Right click via touch means you have to press and wait, wait and then release. So, kinda slow.
#4 Cannot swipe left and right within Immersive IE to switch between tabs.
I didn't anticipate that I would be blown away by touchscreens, and I am not.
