    Oh man, that's stunning.

    If you had the means, this would sell by the truck load imo!

    This slim machine is just so beautiful... Congrats! Are you marketing this somehow? If not, you def should. Could make some real money out of these babies, hitting the right target group.

    I love it, but what are the acoustics like with that blower fan? Does the chassis resonant when spinning up the optical drive?

    I like my computers silent and discrete, any rattle or squeak and it gets fixed asap. :)

    Gtek-

    The requests for orders/kits seem genuine. Seriously, you should look into protecting your design and also marketing this. It is that good.

    Well done.

    I'm in love. I can't decide which I like better, the wood or the anodized. Something about how you've used them both together make them stand out yet harmonize all at once. Bravo!

    He has no IP to protect here, sure he could sell kits but he won't have any design protection.

    (Profession = Product/Industrial Designer)

    Personally I would love a kit to go next to an Eames Lounge Chair as it all fits so nicely.

    Thank you sir. There are plans in making for a smaller production for Tenuis2...

    Thanks. It's almost completely silent. Even during burn out test, blower stayed at lowers rpm... all you can hear (if you are very close to the back of the case) is some electrical buzz from blower motor. If you sit in front, say at a meter distance, you cannot hear anything...
    Optical drive is mounted against 5mm thick aluminium, there is no resonance. The still is usual optical drive noise, but that's all....



    Thanks!




    In UK (and EU) there is something called ''Design Right''. It's an automatic protection of 3d shape and appearance. It comes info place automatically after making design public or available for sale. There is also an option to register design with IP office, but it only makes things easier in case of copying, etc...

    You'd be hard pressed to enforce "Design Right" as any copy could fall under the so-called 'must-fit' and 'must-match' exceptions.

    Hence the whole Samsung vs Apple headache with the Galaxy S2
