The future of peripherals

We all know that tech hits big in japan first so you can expect this attached to your ipad in a few years.

The tumor grows as your cpu usage goes up, deflates when your computer is idle.

Load up a game, and you get tumor exploding all over your spiffy keyboard. Who wants that?

Pretty soon, gamerz will find out and all get them just so that they can compare sizes ...

Alright that was just stupid. A CPU-measuring-computer-tumour? Why? And it's kind of unrealistic because tumours can't shrink and grow at such velocities.

Plus... putting it inside the case doesn't make much sense... how about OUTSIDE of the case? If that thing grows too large, it'll collide with the fans and circuit boards which if hot enough, could catch that rubber sack on fire. All they would have to do is cut a tiny hole for the air pipe and put the side of the case back on.

Zalman has a cool little module that shows CPU usage on a screen.

How about we just forget this thing exists and go on about our lives accordingly.  Thanks.
