My Favorite was the Mac Pro introduced from Apple =P I know it isn't CES - but heck, Apple as to make waves too ^_^
There is no watercooling in the heatpipe - they use a gel that looks like vaseline that doesn't move - it is just insanely excellent at moving heat. it is the same heatpipes I have seen in (Apple) laptops and desktops for years. I got a demo of it's abilities a few years back, and it is wicked stuff. they probably jsut moved it to somewhere else, unless the new chips didn't need it.

Thanks Guys!

I just struck out on my own from Apple, and I'm really looking forward to keeping my own onsite Mac repair business in San diego running with it - Google maps on the go is a godsend, especially when people give you bad directions!

This isn't for sickly individuals - it's for street marketing in the big shopping districts. Instead of handing out the preverbial "you throw this away for me" flyer we're familar with in the states, shops advertize by people handing out tissue packs near thir business with a small flyer on top -usually with a map to where they are at, since the roads are like a big plate of noodles over there. The tissues are useful, so people are much less inclined to chuck them, and see the message later on as well when they open them. My frineds visit the shopping districts, and come back with 5 or 10 different advertising tissues a trip. I imagine hiring a robot to pass them out (5 day rental - a work week?) gets some wow factor, as well as making sure the person you hired to hand them out didn't dump them in a drain and walk off.

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"All of these new nettops have me intrigued. I'm looking for a small, quiet and cheap PC to replace my aging tower in my home office, and all it really needs to do is load Microsoft Office, check email and surf the web. Is there a particular nettop that's better (or a better value) than another? I know it's a rather new segment, but hopefully someone has taken a chance on one already. Thanks!"
