Each individual unit does NOT need its own power supply,. that woudl kinda defeat the object here would it not?
Each unit plugs into the next, so the last one plugs into the wall, and all the others just slot into the front of that.
This is a really neat idea, and along with the ASUS idea mentioned above, is my idea of the future of computing. One day, there will be no CPU or GPU - each 'screen' or terminal thin client will just wireless connect to the main computer in each house/street/town even... its along way off, but distributed processing (if i can call it that) with multiple cores and platforms seems to be the way it'll work.
One day we'll laugh that we sat here with everything connected by wires and actually pressing keys on a qwerty keyboard!!!
