Somewhat related rant:
The $23k Toyota Prius is actually a $12k Yaris with a few few upgrades and batteries. People will think, golly G, I can save 35% of my gas bill we will have more money. So they spend an extra 12 thousand for a car that's going to "save" money for a few years. Do they consider that just the first year of usage will degregate the batteries to no longer allow the 44MPG rating? Every year the batteries will fade and so will your savings in MPG. Do they know that the battery system will not last long? Do they think that within 5-7 years they will need to spend $3000 for replacement batteries? What will they do with hundreds of pounds of dead batteries?
I'm tired of companies making anything "green" that is overpriced and only appears green. Ahem, Apple.
Rant over.

And, as anyone who has ever tried to reheat a pizza in-box will tell you. Those things smell horrible when they heat up. The heat will also further dry out the case and cause it to become brittle one would think.

But boy, do they ever make asinine statements.
And this thing is hideous.

Ditto for the fire hazard.
Also, I've spilled a coke on a real computer before. A little stickiness resulted.
I don't think it would be quite such a happy ending with this cardboard piece of crap.
..And I know this doesn't work for the mass market, but at home I'm still using computer cases from 1998 at home. Now that's sustainable. Sure they've been through a few power supplies and motherboards in their day, but they're not disposable, like this cardboard piece of crap.
I can't stop saying how much of a piece of crap this stupid, asinine idea for a computer case is. I guess it's expandable .. by USB .. like a Mac .. but first they need to cut some cardboard templates for external peripherals. Can you imagine how long a cardboard USB flash drive would last jingling around on your keychain?
