The Real (and Virtual) Adventures of Nathan the IT Guy » Regeneration International Green Computing Technology Design Competition http://itknowledgeexchange.techtarget.com/information-technology Fri, 24 May 2013 15:01:08 +0000 en-US hourly 1 LOOP http://itknowledgeexchange.techtarget.com/information-technology/loop/ http://itknowledgeexchange.techtarget.com/information-technology/loop/#comments Mon, 15 Jun 2009 20:50:30 +0000 Nathan Simon http://itknowledgeexchange.techtarget.com/information-technology/loop/ Wouldn’t it be interesting if you could purchase a PC, not have to use screws, not have to constantly rip apart your PC, junk old parts, and replace them, only to repeat this once every 1-2 years? Jocko Chan from Hong Kong has a novel idea. Basically its a designer chassis that required no screws at all. Part of his vision is to see users renting parts, ie a video card, when its obsolete, the card is returned and recycled and you get a much better video card in return, while continuing payments. Its kind of like leasing a car… check out some design art here. His work was submitted to a design competition that Dell put together called “Regeneration: International Green Computing Technology Design Competition”

This sure would be an interesting concept if it gets backed by Dell.
