Lenovo, the world’s fourth largest vendor of personal computers, purchased IBM’s PC division in 2005 for the handsome sum of $1.75 billion, and along with it the widely recognized ThinkPad moniker. Lenovo has picked up the ball and run with Think...
Though the ThinkCentre A70z is part of Lenovo’s business line, it offers plenty of functionality for the home user. The system’s compact footprint, quiet performance, and reasonable price make it a good choice for everyday computing. However, with t...

The ThinkCentre A70z is the first all-in-one PC we've seen from Lenovo in quite some time. It doesn't look as flash as other all-in-one PCs and bears more than a passing resemblance to the company's ThinkPad laptops with its boxy, black design. It may...

Lenovo's ThinkCentre A70z (1165A2M) is an all-in-one desktop PC that's designed to save space yet still provide good performance when running office applications. It's aimed at business users, but its compact footprint and the ease with which it can be set up should also appeal to students and families who don't want anything too fancy. The Lenovo's ThinkCentre A70z (1165A2M) is very much a workhorse PC devoid of bells and whistles, not to mention modern conveniences such an SD card reader...

Despite its neat all-in-one design, the A70z won’t set hearts a flutter. It is, in many senses, thoroughly unremarkable, but it is also an effective office machine with headroom for slightly more demanding uses. The display isn’t the best we’ve ever se...

The Lenovo ThinkCentre A70z 1165 as a Digital Picture Frame With Benefits; Why Not?! Posted on 26 April 2010 by Judie Lipsett At the end of 2008 I bought my first digital picture frame, the Gigantor 15″ from Think Geek, which at the time was one of t...
All-in-one unit takes up very little space, screen is brilliant and large enough for easily viewing photos from across a large room, functions extremely well as a dedicated multimedia machine and as a desktop computer, in my setup it serves as an info hub...
If used as a desktop computer, 4GB would have been better, but you can upgrade for <$100; included keyboard and mouse are very basic...

Business owners, do your current lineup of productivity PCs boot at a snail's pace? Did you skip Windows Vista in favor of holding on to your roster of now-ancient XP-powered, Celeron- and Pentium-saddled towers? If so, Lenovo’s business-cent...
Relatively strong components, Swift productivity performer, Very fast boot time, Compact design...
Uninspiring aesthetics, Somewhat pricey...
The business-centric A70z tackles productivity chores better than similarly priced all-in-ones, and it boots quickly out-of-the-box. Though it's bland-looking, its integrated power supply and wireless peripherals make it a good choice for cramped offi...

The Lenovo ThinkCentre A70z is a compact, and very affordable new All-in-one PC that is aimed at small businesses. The device is designed with the similar signature industrial matte black plastic aesthetics of Lenovo’s ThinkPad notebooks. The A70z...
Much better value than a nettop for not much more money, saves company’s not only space, but also saves them money, clean design, solid feature set, better expandability options than with most AIO’s, great support and warranty, overall a good business machine with a healthy amount of multimedia prowess...
Lacks an SD card slot, lacks a video output port for running a dualmonitor setup, no firewire or eSata ports...
Although the A70z was originally designed for large enterprises, mainstream and small businesses, Lenovo has since then realized that the A70z is also well suited for education institutions too. And we imagine that these systems would hold up great in...

Lenovo’s attempts at all-in-one PCs have so far been confined to their consumer-centric lines, but with the ThinkCentre A70z they’re pushing for your office (or at least your home-office). A sober black monolith with a surprisingly affordable price tag...
The takeaway message is that, while the A70z is perfectly sufficient for Office applications, local and streaming media playback (even 1080p YouTube video and bandwidth-heavy Hulu) and even a little Photoshop meddling, this isn't a gaming PC and nor is it...

The Lenovo ThinkCentre A70z ($797 list) is an all-in-one PC that's business oriented, rather than consumer-grade, like most all-in-one desktops out there. It features a 19-inch widescreen LCD, which is bigger than all but the most expensive laptops...
Business-oriented all-in-one PC. Limited bloatware (just an Office trial). Wireless keyboard and mouse. Serial port. Under $1,000. ThinkVantage Utilities, including rescue and recovery. Integrated power supply.
Less than 1080p resolution. Check your software for Windows 7 compatibility. Keyboard is a little spongy.
The Lenovo ThinkCentre A70z can work as the primary PC in your business if you're the sole proprietor, or as the PC for your staff and receptionist. It's an all-in-one business PC that may make "more sense" than other consumer-grade alternatives...

If it hasn't emerged already, the theme of our experience with the A70z was a singular one of competency. It did what we expected it to do, it contained no nasty surprises, but it also didn't bowl us over with anything particularly special. The unit we re...

We priced out a comparable mini-ITX system at Newegg with a similar screen, peripherals and an OEM copy of Windows 7 Pro; the total came out to be just above $700, similar to street price of the A70Z, so it's pretty good value.
Lenovo ThinkCentre A70Z 1165A3U: The A70Z is an effective all-in-one PC for an office environment. With a matte finish 19" LCD, reflection and glare are not an issue, making it easy on the eyes for extended use. Using desktop hardware allowed Lenovo t...
