Apple To Release Touch-Enabled 22-Inch iMac This Y

If a quick and dirty report is to believed,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], touch computing is about to go to new levels in 2010. DigiTimes is reporting that Apple will be launching a 22-inch "all-in-one" PC later this year,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], at an unspecified target date. The information comes courtesy of Chinese publication China Times [translated] and notes that the Cupertino-based software and hardware giant will be outsourcing production of the 22-inch model's touch panels to Taiwan-based Sintek Photronic.
What's interesting about this report is that "PC" is mentioned,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], not "iMac". Sure, you could say that "PC" only stands for personal computer — and it does — but that's sure to confuse a lot of people.
Could Apple be releasing a computer designed to run with Microsoft's Windows operating system? We highly, highly doubt it,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but it certainly never hurts to speculate once in a while.
What's also interesting about this unofficial announcement of sorts is the ergonomics of the entire idea. We can't speak for everybody, but picturing ourselves consistently reaching over to the screen of an iMac for touch input would quickly become tiring for the arms,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], not to mention downright annoying.
For now, we'll let this simmer and get back to this story when we've learned some more concrete details.
