The Pentaform 'Abacus' desktop PC is an eco-friendly computing solution that aims to take on the issue of eWaste head-on in a bid to help transform perceptions of how technology needs to be constructed. The PC maintains a keyboard-shaped construction that features a body that is capable of biodegrading after use to prevent it from sticking around in landfills. The unit features an overall construction that is 63% smaller than conventional desktop PCs and will thus take up less real estate on increasingly cluttered workstations.
The Pentaform 'Abacus' desktop PC is also focused on a low-power consumption rating to make it as efficient as possible and only require as much energy as a lightbulb when in operation. The unit comes packaged in mycelium mushroom packaging that will easily degrade into soil when discarded.
