I am looking at the Lenovo Horizon 2 as a potential PC to use mainly for editing my photos.

I can't say that I'm in touch with the stuff that has been out for the past 5yrs.
The touch screen intrigues me as I've tried this on a friend's Surface Pro 3 running LR5.
Being able to work on it as if its a small drawing pad especially with the brush tool seems to be the way forward.
So that brings my attention to the Horizon 2.
QHD, i7 or i5, 8GB ram; 27" of touch screen (enough specs I'd think)
It might just work like a big drawing block.
Again I would think its strength would be for the brush tool in LR and touch up, exposure blending in Photoshop (PSE 10 in my case)
Has anyone had experience with this sort of working method?
I can already think of scratches and fingerprints as immediate downsides.
Too smooth less tactile feeling using a scribe pen on the glass surface too.
Am I wasting money on QHD on a 27"? (would FHD be enough?)
I have looked at a 23" mac and I do think it looks good, so supposedly this 27" QHD would be a bit better.
I am also considering an alternative to this which would be a more typical PC+BIG UHD TV but the downside is no touch screen for the brush work.
Thoughts?
No "Mac and won't look back" type comments pls
TIA
