I think this would bring whole new possibilities to the world of Chatroulette.

I would use it in a pool so I could say cool and be online all at once during the hot weather.

I don't think that anyone makes them. But there are some waterproof external hard drives. Your best bet would be to make one yourself, or maybe build a skin for one. THAT WOULD BE AWESOME!!!

I would love that to take my laptop to the swimming baths. lolz And taking baths with it lol. Useful for when i am programming! In the hot weather. What they should also make is a thing that makes the laptop float as well. So i could be swimming the channel and update my twitter status! Ha ha ha that would be awesome...

I don't know of any that are waterPROOF, Panasonic make water RESISTANT "Toughbooks" though. I think waterPROOF computers would be insanely expensive. Everything would have to be entirely self contained. Think of it. It couldn't use an air cooling system (no new air,) and the ports would have to have totally watertight seals, and a number of other complications that would make it hard, though not impossible. Just strap a SCUBA tank to it! lol But that is a really neat idea. Do computers in submarines count? ;)
