Lenovo - a company better known for its business oriented PCs - is hoping to break into the home with the launch of a new all-in-one PC.

The Lenovo C200 features an 18.5in widescreen display with an Nvidia ION 265MB graphics card, an Intel Atom D510 dual-core processor, and an integrated DVD writer. Although the base model is a plain all-in-one, paying extra will upgrade it to a touch-screen edition - although sadly it's not a multi-touch panel.

The C200 also comes with an integral webcam which the company claims is optimised for low-light environments with a larger lens and better light and colour sensitivity than the usual fare, along with in-built stereo speakers to keep your desk clear of clutter.

Interestingly, Lenovo has also added its Rescue System backup solution to the C200 which the company claims allows users to restore lost data at the press of a single button.

The C200 comes as Lenovo also launches a new netbook, the ultra-slim IdeaPad S10-3s. Measuring just 16mm thick, the S10-3s is again aimed at the consumer rather than the business market, with Dolby Headphone Audio included for music on the go and Lenovo's Quick Start instant-on operating system allowing access to the Internet without the need to boot into Windows.

Both the C200 all-in-one and the S10-3s are due to hit Lenovo's US online store by the end of this month, starting at $399 (£262) and $379

(£249) respectively for the base models.
