Standard mid-range quality really.

You got a link to the one you saw? I should be able to get it cheaper as the places I buy IT gear off sell Acer systems too.

Im considering changing next year as this one is starting to slow down and the all in one is much better in terms of space saving/looks. Also as i do alot of photo viewing and web browsing touch screen appeals.

No, they are actual desktop pc's. With mouse and keyboard. But then with a touch screen. Seems completely pointless if you ask me.

Its not a new thing either. Its just a fancy EPOS terminal really.

As we found out I love my one! It does have a keyboard and mouse but with how it's positioned now I only ever use the keyboard. Mine is an Acer too

It's quite hard to explain, but with where my PC sits, it's easier for me to rest on my elbow with my arm facing upwards (like if I was about to arm wrestle) touching the screen than it would be holding the mouse

Yep and I've used Epos terminals for 6+ years and they are incredibly useful. I use my pc for web browsing and photographs mainly, touchscreen is excellent for both. Don't need to use it all the time but sometimes a mouse is tedious. Plus it means 1box instead of tower, monitor etc...
