Pictures of Dell’s Eco Bamboo Computer
We just listened in on Dell CEO Michael Dell’s speech at the Fortune Green conference, during which he showed off a “never before seen” eco-inspired computer with a bamboo casing. Dell said the computer is 81 percent smaller than a standard desktop, uses 70 percent less power and is filled with recycled materials like old bottles, milk jugs and detergent cases. While Dell wouldn’t give the name of the bamboo box, he said the product would come out later this year and would likely range in price betwen $500 and $700. Check out our pictures of the ecoputer.
More dendro-technophilia pics after the jump.

Where are the specs? does it have a VIA processor? every ‘eco’ PC should have a VIA processor and run Linux.
Very nice.
Hopefully efforts like these will drive home the notion that the average PC user doesn’t need a massive, plastic clad tower to surf, e-mail and trawl Facebook/MySpace :)
[...] Vi har sett flere anvendelser av bamus tidligere, men dette er den først pc-en vi har sett laget av gresset. Dette er Dells forsøk på å bli mer miljøvennlige. I følge selskapet skal den blant annet bruke 70 prosent mindre strøm og den benytter også materiale fra resirkulerte bokser. Maskinene skal etter ryktene prises mellom 500 og 700 dollar.

[...] Its made with old bottles, milk jugs and detergent cases and its a PC. Dell has announced what they call a ecocomputer.

It sort of looks a bit corny to me. But at least it’s a start.
I like it. The design just doesn´t seem practical, but at least they are doing something for the environment.

Too bad it is a DELL, it will end up as landfill within two years. Junk ass pc builders! So no, not eco-friendly.
Sounds and looks great! Hopefully will see more movement towards eco-friendly components and casing in the future.
Love it. Is there a plug in for solar charging?

BUt think about it, this means they would need to cut some bamboo for each computer. I think synthetics would be the way to go on this one
Although the concept is cool, the sad thing is that you’re stuck with windows. Well, that is if you want any entertainment with out having to tweak one of those free OS systems. I hope apple comes out with something similar. Meh….
