Next Gen Computing

Posted by Matt Cipriano | 2 Comments

Imagine that this is your new computer. Want to update your graphics card? Just pull it out and replace it with a new one. Want to bring your new audio card to your friend’s place so he can hear how much better it is then his? Just pull it and go.

This is the Zeed+ PC, designed by Kenneth W. K. Wu, it took 4th place in Microsoft’s NextGen PC design competition.

Honestly, the designs for some of the other PCs are nicer, but I have stumbled across them on other websites already, so I figured I’d show Kenneth some love.

Anyway, you can check out all the winning designs over at Microsoft in an article they call A Brave New World of Computing

With the PC track record on computer design expect to see these new innovative designs transformed into gray, black and taupe colored towers and desktops with all the innovative design wiped away, while Apple announces and releases their newest model, “the Sphere.”

    Personally, my favorite is Made in China by John Leung. It just looks so sleek and kind of sexy (and like it would go well with sushi), but as I mentioned that is the image that was popping up on all the blogs. I just felt bad for Zeed+ PC

    As with Anna Karina, we prefer to remember the U.S.A as she was in the 1960s.
