G+_Jeff Stevens Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 I have an answer. Because it will be 40% more expensive than the existing interconnect system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Martin Bell Posted January 8, 2014 Author Share Posted January 8, 2014 Jeff Stevens I suspect you may be right. The extra cost would detract the layman consumer (presumably the target audience), and you can't really say that the enthusiast would be interested as they're happy to tinker with HW in its original form.

G+_Jeff Stevens Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Exactly, Martin. Who's the target audience for this thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Martin Bell Posted January 8, 2014 Author Share Posted January 8, 2014 The fact that I immediately liked it implies a niche but I think it would be hard for a producer to define and quantify the market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Daimen Hutchison Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Unisys CTOS used to have a similar modular hardware approach in the 90s. It was a pretty awesome way to set up a system, complete with a network module, or a graphics module. If you needed to up the CPU power you could chain them together too. Downside is the space they end up taking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
