Collapse in a good way. ASUS today shows their ET2300 which is a 23" Windows 8 All-in-One PC with a 1920 x 1080 pixels IPS LCD screen with 10-point multi-touch input. The system features Intel Ivy Bridge Core i7 series processors and comes with integrated Intel graphics or NVIDIA's GT630M and comes with a built-in subwoofer. You can get it with up to 8GB DDR3 1600MHz memory, up to 2TB of HDD storage, a slot-loading DVD drive, HDMI input and output, WiDi, eSATA, USB 3.0 and optional Thunderbolt. One of the special features of the ET2300 is that you can fold it together, turning it into a tablet-like device. Not sure if this feature is really all that useful, but it does make the computer easier to transport.
