Tech Radar have published a review of the Advent Discovery MT1804 desktop. 'The Discovery MT1804 is not a performer, that's for sure. It wouldn't be unreasonable to call it weak, at least in appearance, because its single-core Celeron 900 processor isn't anywhere near the level of modern Core CPUs. However - being realistic - at 2.2GHz it's not completely without processing merit, and the latest Core line goes above and beyond the call of duty. The Celeron 900 is about as beefy as the current range of Atom chips, perhaps a little more so, which should put it into a little bit of perspective. That processor isn't helped by the rest of the core components. There's not much muscle in the graphics department, since the Discovery MT1804 sports an XXX integrated chipset, so you can forget about playing 3D games or doing anything particularly high-end on it.'

Computeractive have published their review of the Advent MT22 All-in-one PC. 'The MT22 is based around a 21.5in widescreen display and uses the Windows 7 Home Premium operating system. The display is a touch-sensitive model, which means most functions can be performed using your fingers instead of a keyboard and mouse (although a keyboard and mouse are still supplied). For example, you can navigate back and forth between web pages by swiping a finger across the screen, and by using two fingers in a pinching motion you can zoom into or out of photos, and rotate them by moving one finger around another on the screen.'

A review of the Advent MT22 touchscreen all-in-one PC has been posted over at CNET UK. 'The MT22 certainly doesn't come across as shy -- a whopping great 21.5-inch LCD display is the first thing you'll notice, and nestled in a futuristic black frame, this hulking 1,920x1,080-pixel screen certainly makes a positive first impression. The second impression isn't quite so rosy. The display is crisp and colourful, but that glossy screen causes so much reflection we could actually see more of our own faces than we could of what was on-screen (and if you've seen our faces you'll know this is never preferable).'
