    Biodegradable computers? Really?

    Not wanting to hijack Di's biodegradable plastic bag woes, did any of the Frenchies see the new computer that has been launched at home?
    Completely biodegradable??
    I was sort of watching it in French whilst strumming the riff to Brown Eyed Girl but I believe its readily available from some website thingy in France, delivered ready to go.
    Surely has to be worth a look?
    Could any of you Google monsters sort me out a link so that I can have a look see?

        I'll let you off as you're strumming Brown Eyed irl...far better tune to take to the lottie than the rather dire JLS one that was floating around my head before

            Cheers for that Jeannie. The one I saw was a Frenchie, and he was saying it was a world first, hmmm. Cheeky rascal.

              Ah haaaa, that second link was indeed the fella.
              Might have to order one of them, as I need a new one for home. They come in some pretty cool colours too.

              Brown Eyed Girl was what I used to sing to my little girl and then with my little girl, always a special place in my heart that song.

                There is the Dell Froot as well - dunno if it's a concept or in manufacture yet -
                Dell Froot Concept Computer With Virtual Keyboard & Display

                ETA - you can tell I should be doing something else, can't you Bob!

                  whereas I just used to have a bit of a crush on a Busker that belted out a pretty good rendition of it

                            I wonder if they biodegrade quicker if you splutter tea/coffee/wine over them at regular intervals???

                              Yes Nicos, that last one was the one I saw on telly.
                              Very clever if it does what it says on the tin.
