I had a chance to take a look at Hewlett Packard’s all-in-one workstation the
HP Z1. Here is what I found.
Overview
The HP Z1 was a great machine to use. I loved that it was compact but yet big enough. It was easy to transport and it performed as well as any other workstation. With all of its components being literally in your face I expected the noise to be a bother. I found that it wasn’t. The HP Z1 runs very quietly and noise was not an issue. It had plenty of ports and functioned just like any other workstation. Not having to bend under my desk to insert media was a nice little benefit that I wanted to make sure I mentioned. Opening the body of the machine was quite easy to do and all components are easily accessed. The lack of wires was also very nice.
