Individual Washer sorts out clothes

Doing laundry can be quite challenging for the uninitiated, as there are pointers such as water temperature, color bleeding issues and bleaching to grapple with before you are able to set up a proper laundry rhythm at your home. The Individual Washer concept works differently since that upright washing machine is equipped with a trio of compartments that can sort and wash your load of clothes together simultaneously without having to anguish about color bleeding or bleaching, saving water and electricity in the process since only one cycle is used. Definitely a concept worth materializing, we say.

Minebea Cool Leaf keyboard

Minebea's Cool Leaf keyboard plays on the design view that everything is as flat as an Ikea flat pack, leaving no gaps within the "keys". Rather unorthodox, but soon after again you won't need to anguish about having pizza crumbs fall amidst the keys during those late nights at the office, while there is sufficient backlight to have you typing away happily through the night. With its flat surface, cleaning the keyboard is additionally a snap, making certain everything remains spic and span at all times. We would miss the clickety clack of the regular keyboard though.
