Computer World-8 : “Bamboo PC !”

Dell, one of the biggest sellers of PCs, is aggressively pursuing a ‘green’ agenda. At its main design centre at Austin, Texas, USA, Dell engineers are working on an ultra small, extra light PC, which is small and encased in shiny, brown bamboo.

Bamboo is light, flexible and strong and can be given a great finish.

The new PC to be launched later this year promises to cut the size of a conventional desktop tower by 80% and reduce power requirement by some 70%.

The media has already named the PC as Bamboo PC.

Excerpts from “Coming soon, Bamboo PC?” by Anand Parthasarathy in The Hindu, Madurai, June 8, 2008.
