For today’s mom, the All-in-One PC from Best Buy answers the need for the latest technology and comes with a sleek, space-saving design, and it has wireless accessories and a touch screen. {squeal}  I had the privilege of hosting an “All-in-One” themed party to introduce All-in-One computers to my friends who are definitely “today’s mom’s”.  We had games, food, we learned a thing or two, but most of all we had fun, and what’s better than that?
I asked my guests what one-word described them and their answers made me smile.
What All-In-One Word Describes You?
We came to the conclusion that being an “all-in-one” mom requires organization, planning, and the ability to multitask each and every day. Having a little electronic {or real life} help doesn’t hurt either! Â {wink}
Why Does Mom Need an All-in-One PC?
1. They take up less space on the kitchen counter, small desk, or home office but still offer a big screen monitor and lots of memory.
I’m thinking that if I had one, I would use it in my kitchen.  That’s where my family lives.  We do homework there, we snack and eat, sing, dance and craft in the kitchen.  It’s the hub of my home, and every home “hub” needs a computer, right?   Here’s  few things I’d use it for:
- I’d actually follow step-by-step cooking recipes while I cook.
- I’d be able to view craft and DIY tutorials where I actually work! Right now I print out 8-20 pages for the tutorial and then take that to my kitchen. Having the computer right there ~ perfect.
- I’d look up homework assignments in a jiffy. Â Or better yet, I’d have my boys do that themselves!
2. With wireless keyboard and mouse your space will be {or should be} clutter-free and it will look like a sleek TV.  I love that it looks like a TV. I think that’s fly.
3. They provide features not available in traditional desktops, like large screens {21-27″} and touch screen functionality. I’m all about functionality, y’all and when my kids touch the screen, it actually will do something. My kids expect touch screens these days and nothings more frustrating that a kid touching a screen that isn’t designed to be touch screen.
All-In-One Minute Party Games
Since was is a family affair, I set up several All-In-One Minute Party Games to keep the kiddos entertained so we could mingle and play around with the PC’s. Needless to say, they were a hit.
- Nice Build: Stack the cups starting with a bottom row of 8 cups. Keep staking until you reach the top. How many cups did you stack in one minute?
- Chandelier: Stack 5 levels of cans, starting with 1 on the bottom and 5 on the top, with a paper plate in between each level.  How many cans did you stack in one minute?
- Slam Dunk: Toss the ping pong balls into the cups. How many balls did you get into the cups?
- Bubble Head: Dip the bubble wand and blow as many times as you can. How many bubbles did you blow in one minute?
All-In-One Word For The All-In-One PC
The verdict is in! After playing with these amazing machines…we decided that the All-in-One PC’s are definitely fantastic for “today’s mom’s”.
We especially liked the sleek space saving design, the chic appearance {it looks like a TV}, and the large, sturdy screens!
One of “today’s moms” went home with an All-in-One PC that day, too! {Lucky Girl!}
Some of the bloggers in attendance blogged about the party too. Â For their perspective, visit Missy, Jamie and Mommy Kudos.

We bought an All in One (HP) earlier this year from Best Buy and I love it! I love the huge screen and that there ISN’T a tower! Gasp! We debated over getting the touchscreen but couldn’t justify spending the extra money on something we didn’t need.
I have mine in the living room. Firstly: because it’s the only room with enough space for an “office corner” and second: so I can still be involved with the family when I’m on the computer.
