Apple iMac 21.5-inch (November 2012) Apple's attention to detail extends to the 21.5-inch version of its thin-looking Apple iMac.
But, Windows-based all-in-one PCs offer tough hardware competition in the sub-$1,400 price range.
The bottom line: The 21.5-inch iMac will be a compelling lower-cost all-in-one for Mac loyalists, but you can get more capabilities from similarly priced Windows all-in-ones.

Asus ET2300INTI Extra features like Thunderbolt ports and Intel Wireless Display technology bolster the strong core components of the touch-screen Asus ET2300INTI all-in-one PC.
But, Commodity PC styling won't win this Asus system any design awards.
The bottom line: It's not the most attractive PC out there, but the Asus ET2300INTI has a broad array of features that will entice those looking for a mainstream Windows 8 all-in-one.

Toshiba LX835-D3380 A fast CPU helps distinguish the Toshiba LX835-D3380 from its Windows 8 all-in-one competitors.
But, Toshiba played it safe with this system, offering few interesting features to go with the new operating system.
The bottom line: Look no further than the Toshiba LX835-D3380 if you want a comfortable, speedy all-in-one on which to learn Windows 8.
