Dell has added to its Inspiron 'family' with the touchscreen all-in-one Inspiron One and Inspiron Zino HD media PC the latest to join the computer giant's desktop range.
The Dell Inspiron One is billed as the 'perfect family PC', although presumably that family does not leave sticky fingerprints on the touchscreen, with the Dell Inspiron HD a 'mini powerhouse PC offering Dell's best home theatre capability.
