It is appropriate here to recall the “chocolate” in 2006 – LG KG800 Chocolate – became a cult abroad.Even after the company Samsung and other vendors directly, the market rubble impressive, but controversial in terms of ergonomics phones. A similar decision Samsung E900 Phantom appeared a month later after Chocolate.Fully touch screen and the “finger” to enter in tachfonah became only the logical continuation of ideas.

 Used Technology Management Magic Touch sensor buttons had some advantages over the usual buttons.This lack of moving parts, the set of mechanical parts (keys substrate, for example), finally by engaging look – glossy shell, “Chess” keyboard.

 Naturally, the keys have sensory disabilities, in particular, the capricious behavior in some situations.False alarm, the absence of tactile contact for many become the cause of rejection of such phones. But the image sensor charge the keys was very high, which identified the popular choices among manufacturers. Since 2006, virtually all large companies have submitted a model with one or other sensory elements.

 Of course, a crucial role in the success of LG KG800 has a catchy appearance, marked by various prizes (Red dot Design Award, iF Design Award).”Chocolate” design became an indispensable attribute of not only the number of phones, but also the related digital devices, particularly of MP3 players.

 It is noteworthy, and marketing the company’s success in advancing these and other models of image series of Black Label.In many ways, thanks to massive advertising, it has been possible millions of dollars in sales alone, the original Chocolate.In the future design and some of its elements has been beat in a variety of devices, from the status (EDGE-variation LG KE800) to the budget, “dietary chocolate“, for example, LG KG280.

MSI NetOn AP1900

Despite the fact that the interest of the market to thin clients, PCs and compact monobloc internet terminals there for several years, manufacturers of such systems until recently been reluctant to move their products onto the platform Intel Atom.Activities in the promotion of new products based on it recovered only at the beginning of this year, and one of the first companies became MSI.

The main reason that the Atom does not appear on desktop systems before, was the economic inconvenience of such a step.For Class all-in-one characterized by higher production costs than for netbukov, and for ultra-corporate models – low retail price, which reduces the margin of the manufacturer.If you engage in mass production of desktop PCs based on Intel Atom, a vendor will be less than the processors for the manufacture of netbukov, bringing greater profits.

Another factor that probably influenced the strategy of companies like ASUS, Gigabyte and MSI, was the threat to reduce sales of budget motherboards manufactured by them.Nettopy and monobloc PC is quite capable of simply displace the traditional budget PCs from the office segment of the PC, which brings a significant percentage of their profits to producers.A similar situation may arise, and with corporate laptops Lenovo, HP, Dell and other vendors, who today often do not acquire in order to ensure mobility of staff, and to optimize your workspace.Naturally, from the commercial point of view is the development of the situation would be undesirable.

However, over the past few months, the situation changed. Deficit Atom processor to build the release of CPU by Intel Corporation came to nothing.Manufacturers netbukov begun to provide more advanced model – with a diagonal screen 10 “, more sophisticated design, more functionality, etc., to maintain interest in the segment and to attract buyers to the traditional notebook PCs, the basic model moved to second place.In addition, the update is not far off of the platform: Intel is preparing to release a new chipset for Atom, and a little later – and a new model with an advanced processor architecture.In short, the vendor has a lot of available CPU and chipsets that can be used for the production of desktop systems.

MSI NetOn AP1900 is the class system all-in-one, and is positioned as a solution for Internet cafes, offices and other similar patterns of use not requiring high performance, but critical to ergonomics, energy consumption and the price factor.
MSI NetOn AP1900 actually built on the basis of large 19-inch monitor with the increasingly popular 16:9 ratio and resolution of 1366 × 768, the body which is a PC based on Intel Atom.Its specifications are almost identical to those for most netbukov middle class: CPU Intel Atom N270 (1,6 GHz), Chipset Intel 945GSE from the south bridge ICH7-M, 1 GB RAM DDR2-533 and the graphical kernel Intel GMA 950.Interestingly, the device is not based on the desktop CPU and chipset (Atom 230/i945GC), and their mobile versions, which use energy-efficient processor. Obviously, this is done in order to unify and to save on the development of a new motherboard.

Since the SSD-drives used in PCs of this class has no meaning, MSI has used the traditional 2.5-inch hard drive Western Digital Capacity 160 GB Interface PATA. The device is equipped with a Gigabit Ethernet network controller and Wi-Fi (802.11b / g), a wireless antenna adapter is integrated into the body. At the top of the screen frame are fitted with a web camera with a resolution of 1.3 MP and a microphone, on the sides of the rear wall removed small trends.Also note the pleasant addition of memory card reader and DVD-writer drive LG GT10N.However, using the latter may have some problems: it is equipped with a traditional carriage and placed vertically, so the carriage when loading the disc had to hold the hand that’s inconvenient. Interface connectors are located on the rear and right walls.At the back of the shell removed two connector PS / 2, two USB 2.0, audio in / out and RJ-45 for LAN. On the right side are two more USB 2 connector.0, card reader, supporting media standards SecureDigital, MultiMedia Card, MemoryStick, and xD-Picture Card, as well as the optical drive.Thus, the complexity of the constant connection of peripheral devices, and using a USB-drives and other mobile equipment should not occur.
The set includes a set of wired mouse and keyboard, the latter is «compressed» layout, typical for notebooks. Such a decision seems rather moot: if the table was a place for the PC with a diagonal of 19 “, the full-size keyboard would fit.However, no one prevents the user to connect additional devices.

Design MSI NetOn AP1900 somewhat resembles Apple iMac. Under the screen there is a wide area, doing nothing other than a company logo and button, highlighted with blue LED.Its location and high brightness can be distracting when working in a room with inadequate lighting, and turn off the backlight button, unfortunately, can not.By the same area of the screen itself is quite high above the table, which can be inconvenient, and often a feeling of blank front panel. But the device can boast a small thickness – only 35 mm – and the possibility of mounting on a wall using the VESA-compatible bracket.

MSI NetOn AP1900 Tests show that its performance matches those in the vast majority of netbukov market.The modest increase in productivity compared with the average netbukom provides traditional hard drive, featuring a higher speed recording, as compared with SSD, established in the mobile PC.The device allows you to comfortably work in conjunction with a text editor and web browser. In addition, the CPU performance enough to play the video with a resolution of 1280 × 720 (after properly adjusting the decoder). Naturally, the DVD also problems would arise.The quality of the display to the traditional budgetary TN-matrices: claimed response time of 5 ms, 160 ° viewing angles and brightness of 250 cd / m ². For office use of this enough, but nothing more.For demanding users to speed the company MSI has released NetOn AP1901 with dual-core Atom 330, but they have not yet been marketed.
