GreenTech: Fujitsu conceptualizing eco-friendly laptops

Japanese tech company Fujitsu are cautiously creeping onto the greentech bandwagon with a couple of concept laptops on display at this week's Japan Design Innovation 2008 trade show, being held for some reason in Milan, Italy.

In keeping with the burgeoning trend towards putting wood in everyone's lap, the first model is the Woodshell, which has a casing made in part from cedar, and which sports a cool retro 70's rec room look.

The second computer is the catchily named FMV-BIBLO NX95Y / D, which apparently features a casing made of some kind of bio-plastic. I say apparently because the info page is in Japanese, and the automatic Google translation spits out sentences like "Development of plant-based plastic that time, some small parts was limited to the adoption of the improved through the ability to adapt to a variety of conditions to the birth of a new plastics plant splendour." Make of it what you will.

No word on when either of these models might become stop being concepts and start being real.
