This is your chance to win a Lenovo ThinkCentre M90z 23ββ HD-ready Touch Screen all-in-one desktop computer! π
Lenovo is currently doing a blog outreach program, and they are allowing each blogger involved to give away one of these super cool systems.
One of the features I didn't share in the video (oops!) is that there is an on-screen touch keyboard.
It stays over to the left at the very edge of the screen, and you simply tap it to bring it open. It also works with a stylus pen.
This system would be super cool with a swing arm mounted by a chaise lounge or big comfy chair & ottoman.
That way you could swing it out of the way, or in front of you at a comfortable level and tilt to work on it like a giant iPad. π
All you have to do is a leave a comment below between now and May 2nd, 2011 (10pm Eastern) - specifically with your thoughts on the ThinkCentre M90z - and you're entered to win!
At 10pm Eastern on May 2nd I will do a random drawing from all of the comments about the ThinkCentre M90z on this post, between now and then. One entry per person, multiple comments do not equal multiple entries. YouTube and Facebook comments do not count - you must comment here on this post (below).
Be sure to use the correct email address and Twitter ID when leaving a comment below. I will contact you via Twitter if you win the drawing, and email you to get your shipping address for the prize.

This computer would be great for my 5th graders and special needs students. They can update our website, and have a great time with the interactive screensaver you show on your site!
Lynn, Thanks for the review on the Lenovo ThinkCentre M90z all in one desktop computer. It sounds as if the checklist of features would be a great asset to my home office. Sounds as if it would be as useful as your tips! Thanks so much for the information and shot at winning one!
Hey Lynn,
I have been interested in working online for a little will now and find that your site provides very informative information. I enjoy reading your post.
The system that you are giving away in this contest is very cool and would help if I take the plung into the maze of beening an internet business person.
Keep up the good work, Doug
Thank you Doug! π Let me know if I can help you get started online. I have a forum at http://www.clicknewz.com/members/ where I'm happy to brainstorm or answer questions. Good luck in the drawing!
WOW...this computer looks amazing! I would love to try to implement it within in my school district to see how it would affect the teaching environment!
Wow! What a great prize. I've never used a touchscreen before and I'd love to try this out. Great screensaver, too. Thanks, Lynn.
I've been considering a fish tank, and if it can double as a computer - so much the better! π

YES! It's about time that touch screens come to the desktop. Thank you Lenovo. It's so intuitive. My only concern is the fingerprints that my other computers will have all over the display.
Mark
I haven't yet had to clean the screen. Odd. My iPad is the worst for showing fingerprints. Even over my Droid X which I use much more! I'm surprised it isn't more of an issue with the ThinkCentre. I expected it to be marked up like my iPad... but its not!
Thanks for sharing that, Lynn! I was actually thinking about this over the weekend and I wondered if the screen is a nightmare from a cleaning perspective. It's great to know that it is not high maintenance. My iPhone and iPad are both painful when it comes to this!
Thanks again for all you share with us.

Ok, that screen saver is amazing. We use a regular HP laptop as a 'kitchen appliance' these days. It's great having it for quick look ups, gathering the family to watch misc videos, quick email checks, etc. This would take that experience to a new level...

A very interesting review of the Lenovo ThinkCentre M90z.
I heard about this product for the first time through your facebook page. Thanks for sharing.
It seems like a really cool device and could be useful and giving presentations. I hope you get to keep the review product.
I would love to see one of these in my home. Hope you get one too π
Best of luck to all those who have commented.
Fahad.
I would love this portable computer for my household!
I love the idea of no tower to stub my toes on under my desk. And, the touch screen sounds pretty interesting. I am a fan of Lenovo. They have quality products and their customer service is outstanding.
I would love to add a new Lenovo ThinkCentre to my office. Thanks for offering such a cool giveaway!
This is a very nice computer, perfect for online blogging. I am in the process of starting a blog. Lynn her website and this computer would be great assets in starting blogging.
Hello Lynn, I also thank you for the review on the Lenovo ThinkCentre M90z all in one desktop computer. I have been considering a new system for home and this seems like it would fit the bill in a fantastic way. I always look forward to your newsletters. Thank you for all you do. PS I hope I win :).
Hi Lynn,
Great review of the Lenovo ThinkCentre M90z All-in-one desk top computer. I love the idea of having a complete computer in such a compact space. I also love the fact that it has its own built-in webcam. No more clumbsy attatchments stuck to the top of the monitor. Sounds like an amazing system. Can't wait to hear more about it.
Thanks again for a great review.
You had me at "no tower", since we spend money twice a year to get dog hair vacummed out of our towers!!
(Either need one of these, or maybe a Great Dane instead . . . )
Thanks, Lynne!
LOL Slim sheds A LOT :p
Nice video, Lynn! Having a touch screen computer would be very cool - I'd feel like I was on the Jetsons. π (Although to be honest I can't remember if the Jetsons were that advanced.)
Do you find it's hard on your arms after a while reaching to touch the screen?
This looks perfect for me. My current ideas and plans are too big for my current computer. The Lenovo can handle the job with room to spare.
The lenovo looks like a great computer. My home computer is on it's last leg and this would be a welcome improvement.
The swing arm mounted by a chaise lounge !
Now you're talkin' !
Started doing a lot of research recently to purchase a new computer and never considered a touch screen till watching this review. I can see a lot of ways that it would save me a lot of time! Love the screen size too!
Thanks Lynn!
YES! I NEED a giant iPad with Windows. If I were to describe what I want to have for my evening computing time, it would be the ThinkCentre. If I don't win, this has to go on my "Gotta have it" list. Thanks Lynn!
Looks like an amazing system! Touchscreen, no tower...looks like a great work computer.
Hey Lynn, That is a pretty awesome computer. I have been chained to my laptop for soo long. I do not even remember what it is like to work on a desktop. They have came a long way. That would fun to work on.
Lynn, I was not familiar with Lenovo or the Think Centre before your contest, but it is cool! I'm thinking I could put it in my lap like a computerized "lap desk" (remember those)? Anyways, my old computer is... well, REALLy old and slow, so this would be a godsend!
This computer looks so cool with it's all in one features.
But the great thing is that it makes the boring desktop more fun by bringing an onscreen multitouch keyboard.
It looks like Lenovo is bringing sexy back to desktop computing!
The Lenovo ThinkCentre M90z 3429A3U looks like a great computer and an awesome prize! I've used Lenovo laptops for some time now in my job and they've always been tough, reliable machines. I particularly like how neat the M90z is compared with other, similar spec'd desktops and can already see how I could make great use of the touch screen functionality.
Kind regards,
-John.
Hmmm... looks interesting. I love the idea of having more flexibility. Not sure about the onscreen touchpad, as fingerprints on my screen drive me nuts. But I'd be willing to give it a shot. π
Thanks for the review Lynn. This system looks amazing! I am an iPhone girl, so I love the touch feature. And seems that I remember an HP system long, long ago that had a touch-screen feature. But I'm sure it was way before it's time because it wasn't long-lived.
I'd love one of this in my office.
Hope you are doing well!
Terri
How handy, a desktop computer with the convenience of touch operation and the appearance of a giant laptop. Count me in!
Cool system, but the onscreen keyboard looks like it would take some getting used to if you use it in place of the real keyboard. I'm curious, when looking at pictures, can you shrink and expand them by using your fingers much the same way you can on the iPad and iPod touch?
Hey Lynn - Thanks for showing a video on using the ThinkCentre M90z. I just love technology! This is good for us, ahem, older women who have a little difficulty reading "tiny little letters". I think my menopausal woman's list will love this. No more eating lunch at my desk though! π Thanks again for sharing what's new! You're the best!
I love it when technology actually becomes practical. We've been experimenting with touch screen computers and tablets for the kids for years, and never has the functionality met up with the price to bring it to what I needed it to do. This looks very promising. I like the idea of being about to mount it on a swing arm too. Would be great to have in front of the treadmill or bring it down to desk level.
This would be the perfect computer for my home office. I like the sleek look to the Lenovo ThinkCentre M90z all in one. I really like the idea of a touch screen computer. I can imagine myself using it to record my videos and podcast. The checklist of features seem pretty cool, I need everything I can get to keep me on task π
Great review Lynn. This looks like a great computer and I like the fact that it doesn't have a tower. I've been following you for years and pecking on my old computer just as long. I'd love to start pecking on the Lenovo ThinkCentre M90z All-in-one desk top computer π
Okay, I'm in
You'll have to leave a more specific comment about the product or potential uses as mentioned in the post π
Hi Lynn - Thanks again for the great content. As laptops converge with tablet computing devices, I think this would be a useful product to pilot in both a work and home environment. I could see a lot of practical uses with the Lenovo ThinkCentre in the kitchen or family room.
Thanks!
Andy
Lynn,
Nice review...the Lenovo ThinkCentre M90z all in one desktop computer may be just what I need for my mom. It seems simple enough that a 70 year old just might adapt very well to it. I'm excited to give it a try.
ThinkCentre M90z looks like a great new option for windows users like me...compact "guts" but huge screen...great for webinars, making/viewing video tutorials, using the more interactive sites...And I LOVE the idea of using it in my summer outdoor office...my deck! How much does this weigh?
Thanks for the review, Lynn. We have a "dinosaur" computer as our main computer so this one would be really nice! This sounds intriguing.
Hi Lynn,
DANG! I had not seen anything like this (such a luddite) before. I just got an iphone and am loving touch capability. To have an entire computer system like that would be AWESOME. I'll throw my hat in the ring with the hundreds of others. You never know;).
Talk to you tonight!
Ken
You got me interested when you mentioned the chaise lounge, and swinging the screen over like a big IPad...
Hello lynn, Stumbled across your website today by finding you on Twitter. Although I have been interested in online marketing for many years and spent quite a bit to date. I have actually got a website up and running from last week. I think the site is far from perfect but its a start. Finding the info on your site interesting and usefull.
The computer looks great and I would love to win it, thanks for the opportunity.
Follow me @BenfleetDegsy on Twitter
Welcome Derek! π
This would be so helpful! Starting a new business and maintaining 3 websites on my own computer! My husband wouldn't need to be standing in line doe his turn π
I like that it's so thin (as opposed to my mom's HP all-in-one), and appears to be much faster. My only apprehension is that Apple made an OS specifically for their mobile touch devices, where the Windows 7 OS is really not specifically tailored for such a thing. That being said, I have tried some of the touch screens at the Windows store in Oak Brook, IL and have found them to have improved their sensitivity and flexibility. This all-in-one would probably be ideal for someone who loves touch screens, very few cords, and more room on their work desk. Enjoy!
Hi Lynn,
I have watched you over the last couple years grow your business Lynn and I am so happy for all your successes. The Lenovo ThinkCentre looks to be a really cool business machine. If I were to win... it would be a great tool to help me with my business. I love to learn new technology and this seems to be the latest and greatest in just that. Thanks for the chance to win this great new tool.
Best,
Robin
This looks like a wonderful combination of flexibility and productivity. Having that touch screen would sure eliminate the problem of keeping track of my cordless mouse.
I'm truly amazed at technology! This Lenovo touch screen computer looks amazing, especially considering how old my current pc is. Thanks for having this contest, Lynn!
I have always been fascinated by these touch screen all in one computers and this one definetly looks like a front runner. Would love to win this computer, I mean who wouldn't! Great review! :]
I am not sure this computer would work good for most people. Being that it is like a tablet pc I think I would like to have this in my lap. Not sure on the weight issue though. lol Just the thought of hanging my arms over the table all day to touch the screen... hmmm and also the onscreen keyboard, why? If its gonna sit on the table? Would be a great lap feature though. I do think though this ThinkCentre M90z would be great for a presentation screen for my business to show clients what my company does and how it helps them succeed. This is a total toss up for me whether I could use it effectively as a desktop computer, but I do ultimately thing a presentation computer would be its best use.
Looks very cool. I used to use Thinkpads when I was in corporate and they are one of the best PCs out there. Crossing my fingers for the win!
