Default A Cardboard Computer: The Recompute PC
Brenden Macaluso has comeup with the Recompute PC which is his entry to the Greener Gadgets Design Competition which will be held shortly this year. The PC is made from cardboard which has been corrugated and held together with environmental friendly glue. The PC is a complete workhorse with 2 GB of RAM, 2.5" HDD coupled on a microATX motherboard with four USB ports. Cardboard may raise the issue of getting burned when heated but according to the designer the PC can withstand temperatures of the order of 258*C.
