HP Touchsmart PC hits the retail market

HP recently made their new TouchSmart all-in-one PC available online, now they have also announced retail availability. While I can just imagine the grime that will be on these in-store display models, I suppose it would be kind of nice to purchase a TouchSmart PC in person, because when you think about it, the touch is important and most will want to test it out a bit before committing.
The TouchSmart PC comes in two models, the IQ504 PC and the IQ506 PC. Both offer a 22-inch touchscreen display and are priced at $1,299 and $1,499 respectively. The IQ506 PC is a little more powerful overall, but also comes with a built-in TV-tuner.
