This innovative concept by Charlie Pyott *needs* to be made. An ultra-portable record player like this would be a hit at parties for sure. Check out more action shots after this.
Be sure to check out Charlie’s site for a rundown of the actual operation, it’s pretty nifty.
The design of the “Philco PC” was inspired by the 1954 design classic Philco Predicta, as well as an eclectic mixture of modern minimalism, the steampunk movement, and antiques. As lead designer Dave Schultze explains, “The result is a design aesthetic that blends multiple elements of the familiar, but with some surprisingly fresh styling that just so happens to house a state-of-the-art Windows 7 PC.”
I absolutely love this design, if only for the typewriter-inspired keyboard. I am reminded of Jimmy Neutron’s secret lab with this computer setup [and old diners, the ones when poodle skirts were in vogue]. How about some product shots?
