"Bookshelf" Computer Wins Design Contest

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the hardware-libraries dept.

aibrahim writes "Industrial designers at Purdue University win a competition for next generation computer design sponsored by Microsoft. The design emulates a bookshelf, with hardware components that are "stacked" horizontally around a cube shaped CPU. The design attempts to address hardware issues from a user perspective and is pretty cool despite a focus on DRM."

    "something Microsoft will leverage"

    "Leverage" is a noun, you fucking twat. You mean "use".
