“When we reviewed the Lenovo IdeaCentre Q100 not long
ago, we had one critical complaint: while the system looked sleek,
it ran too slow for even rudimentary tasks. For example, even
though the system is meant as a web terminal or for knowledge
workers who just need access to enterprise services at a company,
the slow processor and sub-par graphics made the original Q100
inadequate for power-user tasks.

“That main complaint has been partially solved with the
successor, called the IdeaCentre Q110. The higher model number
denotes a fairly important change: the Q110 uses the Nvidia Ion
chipset to handle graphics performance. This also means the Q110
has an HDMI port for connecting the device to your home
entertainment system for both audio and video, or to a monitor that
supports the connection. Suddenly, the Q110 becomes more
interesting. The stylish design, with an angular look and an
all-black exterior, fits well in your entertainment room and the
Q110 plays movies and games at reasonable speeds, making it one of
the most well-suited computers for the coming generation of
downloaded content”
