It was a prototype and in no way ready for mass market release. It was simply an idea that razer decided to make to show their vision of the future.

Throwback!

 

I remember when it was shown off at CES and I was super hyped about it. Somehow it quietly disappeared.

What was the general response to this project? 

Bleigh!  Ever hear of AC series?

It was simply a concept they thought was cool and wanted to share.  it very likely will never make it to market.

It was canceled as it was impractictical due to the cost of it. It probably had some faults that were not resolvet at that point. It was just probably too much work to deal with.

It was cool nonetheless.

I thought of it a couple of days ago - it's a really interesting concept and I'd be interested in seeing it take off.

 

But then it wouldn't ever take off, like many other Razer projects.

Sig under construction.

I must have missed this video when it came out. But dam that thing is one fine looking machine and hope something comes of it as it is an interesting concept.

I remember it, and I like it (I don't love it) Building a computer isn't that hard as it is, and I bet there will be limited parts choices, but regardless, I like it and it seems like a big erosion of Motorola's project ara (which for those who don't know, is like Christine but for phones) I prefer ara

Hopefully they killed it and will focus on another tablet or a hand held.

That looks hideous and I hate parts stuck behind boxes. Such a pain in the ass to saw through an external hard drive enclosure if I want to slap that thing inside my rig instead. I don't see what's so hard about opening up my case and plugging a video card into a PCIE slot. Good riddance, Razer sucks.
