Windows 8.1 upgrade bundle with touch display, other tech deals

Computer touch interfaces are definitely upon us, invading nearly every type of device out there; for better and for worse. Windows 8 actually just a good job of making a touch-friendly Windows experience, but that is precisely what makes it worse for those who don’t have a touch screen.

Whether you are looking to get your PC off of Vista or just need a Windows 8 license, this is the best deal we’ve seen to get in on some touch goodness. Right now you can get a Dell E2014T multi-touch monitor and copy of Windows 8.1 Pro bundled together for $249.99, which is how much the monitor usually sells for by itself.
The 20-inch E2014T balances its specs with the multi-touch capability to keep the price low. You get HD+ 1600×900 resolution with 5-point touch support. A nice addition of triple video inputs (VGA, DisplayPort, HDMI) and USB hub are unexpected touches; it even has an MHL port for direct input from many smartphones and tablets. You even get a 3 year advance exchange warranty, where Dell ships a replacement to you and covers all shipping costs as well.

The Pro version of Windows 8.1 will be quite handy for that new PC build or still-usable PC refresh, having the latest shipping version already on-disc (rather than other deals with just Windows 8) and including the extra networking and security features that are handy to have regardless. If you are looking for either a new monitor or a copy of Windows 8, this deal is the way to go.
