USB in laptops
A while back I read about a geek hacking her asus eee pc so she could install a couple of USB items inside the shell of the machine. It just hit me how nice it would be if there was a standard internal USB form factor for laptops. Some way to install one or two very small appliances be it memory Bluetooth, hsdpa or whatever. Maybe combine it with an antenna built into the standard so the manufacturers of little “extras” wont have to worry about that part. All they have to do is fit into this USB slot. This could open up the laptop to customizations at a very affordable level.
By using USB it would just be a question of manufacturers adapting their current designs to fit inside the laptop. An example could be the 3G USB modems everybody and his brother seems to be using here in Denmark. How nice would that be to have invisible inside your eee or dell or whatever. So here goes ASUS please use this idea and you’ll get me to buy a eee. You could even build it into your motherboards so we wouldn’t have to have all kinds of stupid stuff sticking out of our PCs.
Well back to daydreaming
