19" displays with desk, table or wall mounting options

[sweetham]

Still have to go with VESA wall mounting. Creates a cleaner more professional look. Also gives me more desk space for my head to rest on during those late night neowin sessions.

[JPCFIX]

Energy-efficient design

A70z requires a third of the space as standard PCs, run quieter, cooler and consume less energy.

They also require less packaging and reduce impact on the environment from manufacturing, to your desk and post-lifecycle.

[Pink Floyd Veteran]

That would be mine also. Absolutly need 4GB of ram

Hey Guys,

Gotta say its the mountability!

"Green PCs?good for the environment and your budget"

I have about 10 systems that run 24/7 without ever shutting down. Having one that's actually "energy friendly" would be a nice change. My electric bill will probably be happy too.

[PiNoYz]

Engineered to last

Lenovo quality assurance tests show ThinkCentre has the lowest failure rates to date. A70z all-in-one PCs include the same rigid performance and reliability specifications as any other ThinkCentre PC.
