A traditional desktop computer usually has a computer tower, monitor, mouse, and keyboard. An all-in-one desktop, however, tries to combine these. The actual computer will be inside of the (sometimes over-sided) monitor, and the monitor itself may include a touchscreen. You will still usually want a keyboard, rather that trying to use the on-screen one, and a mouse my be useful as well. You will at least be able to do away with the computer tower, however.

A MacBooks are laptop computers but have the power of a desktop computer. An iMac is an "all in one" computer. It is the laptop commuter designed to be a desktop computer, which allows it to have unique look.
