Default Something new and Innovative not fruit related.


HP Sprout
Originally Posted by ebuyer blog
The Sprout contains what you’d expect from your standard all-in-one Windows 8 PC. A 23 inch LCD 1080p touchscreen display, an i7 Intel Processor, 8GB of RAM and a 1TB hard drive. What sets it apart from the competition are the other external peripherals that come built into it.

Fixed above the display is a projector, which points down onto a 20 inch touchpoint. Place an inanimate 3D object onto the touchpad, and a few seconds later it can be scanned and projected onto your screen (as well as on the touchpad), in all its three-dimensional glory. From there, you can manipulate its design using your fingers or the stylus that comes boxed with the Sprout.

Not at all, I can see the fun in it and would use it once myself. That won't make it a sustainable product though, honestly can you see this in every house?

If you can't see it just trust me, as you know I'm generally right about these things.

I think it will be sustainable, but sure, it won't be in every house, much like imacs or normal PC's.

That doesn't stop it from being truly innovative and certainly good for certain markets, especially creative arenas and graphic design.

Woofters. You're coming across as homophobic, was it an incident in your past?
