Imagine the day when all-in-one desktops (http://www.engadget.com/tag/aio) really mean it -- no keyboard, no mouse, and not even a screen panel. This is precisely Pauline Carlos' idea with her Froot concept -- supposedly an entry for a Dell (http://www.engadget.com/tag/dell) sustainable design contest. Sure, the color options are rather odd if not unappetizing, but if it only takes a virtual keyboard (http://www.engadget.com/tag/virtual+keyboard), a projector (maybe an efficient pico (http://www.engadget.com/tag/pico+projector)), a biodegradable chassis and Windows XP to save the planet, then we're happy to oblige. Hey, there's even a slot-loading optical drive, but bamboo discs are hard to come by these days. Now add some touchscreen Light Touch (http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/05/light-blue-optics-unveils-light-touch-a-10-inch-touchscreen-pic/) magic and we might be tempted to buy it, otherwise that cursor isn't going to work without a mouse. One more pic after the break.Continue reading Dell Froot desktop is a concept design that's less tasty than it sounds (http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/18/dell-froot-desktop-is-a-concept-design-thats-less-tasty-than-it/)
