Luis Luna's green computing
Posted by hipstomp | 17 Sep 2009

Neat idea: Mexico-based Luis Luna's plant-growing-PC concepts would let you add a green thumb to your typing fingers.

"The main idea of this project is to design a CPU that is more concerned about "green thinking' and 'life style' by having a decorative piece to eliminate the abundant visual noise that regular PC's create," states Luna. "[The project is] inspired by oxygen and the whole cycle of photosynthesis, trying to contribute and reduce a tiny amount of CO2 that computers generate during their production and life use until they become waste."
