Today I see myself clicking these plastic keys and staring at my flat screen. But in the near future, I look forward to continue the same act of (typing and staring) but on bio friendly computer set up. Soothing my eco conscious as well sufficing my need to work on a computer to earn my bread and butter is this Froot desktop. Conceptualized by Paulina Carlos, this bio friendly computer uses high-end projecting and laser technology for its use and sustainability. It also chucks the concept of a solid screen and keyboard as they are directly projected onto surfaces. That saves a lot of space too! Moreover it augments social interaction as the project screen can be used as a media center for family or business.


Sporting a biodegradable skin composed of starch based polymers, akin to fruits, the intention to bring such a computer out is to make it a closed loop product. Its electrical components could be returned to the manufacturer for re-use and recycle.

This fruity named desktop concept was yum (nifty) enough to sail though the DELL Regeneration Green Computing Technology Contest.

Isn’t it refreshing to come across such fruity computing ideas! Oh, this reminds me to grab by share of fruit for the day. Maybe a bowl of fruits will help me come up with such clever ideas too 
