I say do away with cables all together!!...
DOWN WITH CABLES
DEATH TO THOSE WHO USE CABLES!!!!

so how would the monitor be powered?
Radiated electrical field induced current of course, ''cept that 'd probably produce too much interference with the wireless monitor / cpu feed.... unless we modulated the radiated field to carry the video signal. Of course then we'd have to have the signal from the monitor and CPU encrypted otherwise everyone with a "ball" and those damn pesky industrial/government spy's (and more importantly spouses) would be able to see exactly what you're doing.

And we'd have to include a free set of shielded & grounded aluminum overalls (with a titanium facade to be colour coordinated) so the users doesn't get nasty complaining about those trivial but asthetically displeasing radiation burns, swollen thyroid glands, being rendered sterile or giving birth to mutants worthy of their own 2000AD comic strip.

speaking of rumours, has anyone seen this?

looks pretty fancy, with FIVE PCI slots & everything else wireless,
including monitor. I personally can't see a spherical computer being viable
($$). And if it had 5 PCI slots it would have to be enormous!
