Tablet PC Made Of Wood

Since notebooks tend to go for sleek and shiny, here’s an alternative for all you traditionalists out there. The S-series notebook concept is made of wood. Yes that’s right, WOOD. Nevermind the weight and horrible heat insulation characteristics of the material, it’s supposed to look refined and sexy, at which it does.

The notebook sports one of those ultra-thin 4mm thick LCD screens, and at 17″ wide, there’s plenty of viewing room. The screen itself is backed by black acrylic, you know, to compliment that wood base. Catering to business users, the S-series is a tablet PC powered by Windows Vista.

This design is so hot! I saw some comments on the waste of wood. But, paper gets wasted everyday all day in lots of places. So, this laptop won’t bring down a whole forest. I would buy this laptop, and I’m sure lots of others would too.

I think it’s pretty funny that people think this is a waste of wood, this is amazing. I can see something like this getting very popular, but i can also see it get very expensive.

I think that the only problem, is when its time to upgrade.

Modern laptops are certainly not as easy to upgrade as a desktop system. So every 2 years or so it would be time to get a new wooden laptop. That would be horribly expensive, why not use a fake wooden design on it?

Judging from the number of laptops catching fire… it would be interesting to see this one go up in flame when internal heat reaches a staggering 90 or even 100 degree…. whooosh~~~ there goes my lap top ~~
