MO:BEN: Automatic Heating of Your Om Noms

moben-portable-food-container4

Have you ever seen the Carrot Top flick, Chairman of the Board? (Oddly enough, this is the same line I use to pickup the ladies.) Trust me, I’m embarrassed to admit I’ve seen it too, and almost enjoyed it on some guilty mental plane. Anyway, Carrot Top’s character creates a TV dinner which automatically cooks itself and has enough juice left over to provide the consumer with some TV using a built-in display. Needless to say, they were a big hit in the film.

MO:BEN, designed by Alex Cheong, is sort of the same thing, except with less radioactivity and more boredom (no TV included). The device is a portable food container which has a built-in heating and insulation system. So in theory, it could automatically heat your food to preheated temperatures of deliciousness. Also included are two handy eating utensils, perfect for the non-cavemen among us. More pics after the jump. (more…)

Expose Your PC’s Private Parts

Heating issues can take a huge toll on your computer’s hardware. I mean, take a look at this Xbox 360. That thing is FUBAR. The team at Antec are aware of the many heating issues people have with their computers, so they’ve built the world’s first open air PC case.

The Antec Skeleton packs a 92mm fan in the front and a three speed 250mm fan (with multicolor LED customization) on top which ensures that there is no way in hell you’re overheating your computer. If anything, your computer will freeze while sitting in this thing. It’s almost like the Antec Nine Hundred, except it doesn’t keep produce fresh.
