Toshiba’s Digital Products Division, a division of Toshiba America
Information Systems, introduced the DX1215, the company’s first
all-in-one PC for the U.S. market. The DX1215 is being marketed as an
all-purpose entertainment hub offering enhanced audio capability with
performance and technologies for high-definition entertainment and
multitasking.
The DX1215 features a 21.5-inch diagonal touch-screen display that
supports full 1080p HD content and sits on an aluminum pedestal stand
that can be angled for various viewing and touch experiences. The
compact desktop also boasts a premium black glossy finish, and via the
HDMI In port, users can also connect to a gaming console.
The desktop comes equipped with a second-generation Intel Core i5 or
Core i7 processor and a 1TB 7200 RPM hard drive. The DX1215 also
includes two USB 3.0 ports with USB Sleep & Charge, four USB 2.0
ports, a built-in DVD SuperMulti Drive and Toshiba technologies,
including Sleep & Music, which enables users to activate the
speakers even if the PC is off, and Resolution+ video upconversion
technology that enhances standard-def video and DVDs by adjusting
color, brightness and contrast in real time to give video a more
high-def look and feel. The PC will also be available in a
configuration with a TV tuner, the company said.
“Toshiba combined its experience with computing platforms and visual
products to create an all-in-one that truly complements the living
situations of our customers with a PC that offers high performance,
premium features and unique styling,” said Carl Pinto, vice president
of product development for Toshiba America Information Systems’,
digital products division. “We’ve designed the DX1215 to serve as the

playing a game or talking on Skype, users expect superior performance
and advanced features,” Pinto said. “The new Toshiba DX1215, powered by
Waves MaxxAudio processors, takes All-in-One PC sound to the next
level.”
