hey guys it's David with the verge we're here looking at the lenovo ideacentre horizon so on the one hand this is just a big 27-inch all-in-one PC it stands use it with a keyboard and mouse and it's fairly normal but it's also called a table PC this is a new thing that I was trying to do they're calling it fidgets all which is a mix of physical and digital basically means that when you lay the horizon flat on a table or a desk or wherever you get automatically into a totally different UI they're calling it aura and it's totally touched based and it has these kind of wheels that you can scroll through and you can play music you can do it you can move stuff around it's all very reminiscent of kind of the original microsoft surface which was a table that you could interact with and do nifty things and the the whole visual thing comes back to things like the air hockey game which you start to play you can actually put their physical accessories down and start doing stuff and so it's designed to be super family-based super interactive again it's a lot like the surface here it's designed to be able to be used by you know more than one person or time so you can put something over there and they can interact with it there's a 10-point touch screen and you can play music while you're doing it ever you want and then if you just want to see all your music you can just do that and it'll bring up whatever you have and then you can bring everything back or get rid of everything it's a very cool kind of a little gimmicky but fun touchscreen interface but then again you're back to just a totally normal Windows 8 PC as a big bright screen it's it's super powerful to core i7 processor it seems to run pretty well we've only used it a little bit but especially being able to run that kind of touch interface works well there's you know some built-in apps and you get the standard kind of gigantic Internet Explorer experience on a device like this it's super responsive to touch it's a pretty interesting device actually and it's going to be cool to see it if it shows up on tables and restaurants and your home and wherever else so that is the lenovo ideacentre horizon you
