From CubicleBot… Nick and Beau Trincia’s concept Openaire transforms from a laptop case into a modular desk and chair. The carrying case/work surface is placed on the lap, providing a comfortable, ergonomic foundation for the use of a laptop while also promoting correct posture.
Panels are located on either side of the case which can be folded down for additional workspace, and the chair is constructed of individual panels to contour any body shape. When used as a bag, “The computer is stored in a padded compartment within the case. The ergonomically contoured profile of the case provides additional storage space for hardware and accessories as well as fitting the users lap.” Check out some additional photos after the break.

If you’ve ever wanted to know how email travels from your modem to your laptop, here’s a diagram that puts everything into perspective. First, the modem receives the incoming mail message, and then the message transforms into a paper airplane that travels to your laptop while generating a blank voice bubble halfway through the ride. Once received by your computer, you will be alerted to the fact that you have mail when your computer poops out an envelope. If you explain the process to your tech-savvy friends this way, you may get a “wow” out of them, but it will most likely be followed by an uncomfortable “…”, not “!!!”.

If you use a laptop, chances are you won’t be reading a newspaper to get your news, you’ll read it off the net while you sit in a coffee shop with free Wi-Fi nursing a latte for four hours. During that time, you can also enjoy gauging reactions from people as they look at this laptop bag designed to look like a folded newspaper. In this case, if someone looks at it and all the color drains from their face while they mumble a slow “motherf*cker”, that person is probably an egg farmer. If they look and yell “Hallelujah!” chances are they’ve been trying to unload expensive property in the UK. Newsprint is unique to each bag and they are fully lined in black satin.
