Modular computing

Mark

Posted in Forums on August 22, 2007 at 9:39 am

There’s been a bit of chatter on the boards just recently regarding modular computing (see here and here) but this design takes the next step and utilises the electrical cabling in a home as the means of distributing digital signals.

It’s a cool concept; the modules could be plugged in around the house and communicate through the electrical wiring. It’s a neat looking device too.
I’m not so sure about the wireless USB though. Shifting gigabits of video, storage and optical media wirelessly may not be every body’s idea of fun.

The Think module would be the main processor unit, the See module would be the graphics unit, the HDD is housed in the Store unit … you get the picture.
It’s still in concept at this stage, but it is a very good looking, ingenious design.

They review a few in CPC this month. Look nice but I don’t trust anything but Cat5e.
