Rain For Computext

My second visit to Computext and I still have not grown up yet! The is something about showgirls which make those flashing back lite LED hard drive boxes not so bad to look at. I suppose the only difference this time is that I am visiting on behalf of AmTran.

The girls from Team Group inc. doing there stuff.

I don't think the show has the same impact as CES and it's definitely for the lower end of the market and the heavy hitters like Sony, Dell and HP etc don't have stands or at least I didn't see them there.

The has been so much rain for nearly the whole week!

I don't think I'll go next year, as I think it's not relevant and the is a lot of gear to see, one of the nice things is to catch up with my mates at the independent design studio in Taipei whose stand are partly funded by the Taipei Design Center, to promote design in Taiwan but I am not sure?

Computex Taipei

This is Taipei's main technology fair, which they hold each year and is a pre launch for all the new technology products, which are just about to hit the high street.

Apart from scantly dressed girls in PVC showing of the latest mobiles it was quite amazing to see the endless line of carbon copy look a likes of Apple iPods and Philips picture frames, it was just unbelievable how these manufacturing companies get away with it!
