Origin PC invites you to gear up and see its etchings

At CES 2018, the custom system builder showed off new ways to jazz up its systems as well as updates to the hardware.


Origin PC latest technology is all about the customization, so it's not surprising that the new systems it showed at CES 2018 were mostly (though not entirely) about the razzle dazzle; the company adds first-rate laser etching and textured printing to its Custom Paint options. Of course, there are also some tweaks to system designs, series rejiggering and components.

At the show, Origin PC proudly showed off its latest technology patent award for the four-way motherboard mounting system in the Millennium/Genesis tower PCs; it really is cool, and if you haven't seen it (it's not new), it allows you to insert the motherboard rack in one of four orientations depending on where you want the backplane to sit.

The systems also level up with tempered-glass panels replacing plastic and upgrading some of the plastic to a higher quality reinforced version. The top and doors snap in with magnets, an optional "VR Panel" (really just front connectors) gets a sliding cover and the use of thumbscrews for tool-free card installation. There's also an optional power-supply-unit shroud to match the black, white or red internals. It doesn't light up, but a girl can dream.

Behold Origin PC's latest technology flashy laser-etched computers
Origin broke the Genesis Pro line -- the Millennium plus a base that holds extra cooling or up to 24 hard drives -- into its own workstation-level L-Class, partly to make it easier to find and configure systems optimized for specific software (such as Adobe Creative Cloud and Autodesk Maya).


Its Omni all-in-one gaming desktop gets a sleeker chassis and a 144Hz Samsung IPS display -- still a 34-inch 1440p -- and its redesigned base is more stable. It uses a smaller motherboard and has a lot more space inside for airflow. The company's working on a clear panel for it (yay!), but the connectors are still inconveniently situated.

Finally, its Chronos compact desktop will be getting a slightly less compact sibling to accommodate dual GPUs, a bigger power supply and overclockability.

At CES, Toyota unveils a self-driving vehicle with some surprising uses

Called e-Palette, the latest technology autonomous electric vehicle has no windshield and no fixed seats — but lots of potential applications. It’s a truck, it’s a taxi, it’s a mobile hotel, its the latest technology. At the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, Toyota announced that it is developing a driverless electric vehicle in partnership with Amazon, Uber, and Pizza Hut, Called e-Palette, the concept vehicle has no windshield and no fixed seats but is designed for use as a passenger-carrying minivan, a parcel-delivery truck, or even a mobile office or hotel room. Larger than the self-driving taxis being tested by Alphabet spin-off Waymo but smaller than the driverless semi-trucks that Uber is working on, e-Palette is seen as a multipurpose urban runabout.

The Floating Electric Car That Was Born From Tragedy

Inspired by the 2011 Japanese tsunami, this latest technology wants to be a comfortable ride and emergency vehicle. The devastating earthquake and tsunami that hit Japan in 2011 inspired numerous innovations meant to prevent future disasters. That includes one man's dream of a floating car. Hideo Tsurumaki, a former Toyota employee, witnessed people trying to escape the tidal onslaught in their cars only to be swept away in the destruction. He later founded Fomm Corp., which aims to build small, waterproof cars that can actually float. He sees them as not just potential ways to get around, but as safety investments. “I intend to put one outside our house,” Tsurumaki tells Bloomberg. “Many others will probably think the same.” Read also THE BEST LAPTOPS FOR GAMING ON THE GO A REALITY CHECK ON THIS YEAR’S WILDEST TECH PRODUCTS While Tsurumaki's Fomm sells itself first as the world's smallest electric four-seater, it's water-resistance and ability to float w...
