Floating PC
Has anyone seen a PC tower on a small hovercraft? That would be cool! (I'm crazy... Sorry!)

Like on one of those wooden home-made ones that use vaccuums or something.

Oh! Better idea! Get a powerful hovercraft and put the whole PC unit on it! You can push it around the place... even on stairs or on water! Or maybe you can sit on it...

I know a lot about hovercrafts, and all I can say is: "Don't even go there." Hovercrafts are by nature extraordinarily hard to engineer well. It would be physically impossible to have the hovercraft go up or down stairs using the thing you'd want. A small computer would take a great amount of energy to support it. The kind of engery that wouldn't be able to be kept onboard. This whole idea has an amazing amount of problems.
Take it from a hovercraft builder.. |

even that might be hard. Hover crafts are also very hard to drive. One ran into my dock in my backyard last summer.
Now put a PC on a blimp. That might be something. |
