All in One Desktops

3. Acer seems like a decent manufacturer, I have one of their monitors and it's fine

This unit gets good reviews on Amazon but I haven't used it personally, that's about as high a rating as I see on anything computer related on Amazon.

Here's a Dell, a bit larger and not quite so good reviews but still not bad at all.

Really the monitor, keyboard, mouse and speakers are what you actually interact with, spend a bit more on that stuff and get the best you can. If you are doing what most people do with a computer these days what's inside the actual computer box isn't all that important except for high end gaming and maybe watching HD videos, although I have several obsolete computers around here that will do video just fine.
