Fender Intelicaster

Intelicatser by Fender/Intel
I guess it was just a matter of time before someone got the idea to formally combine a guitar with a computer, and here it is; the Intel/Fender Tele. The Tele has been routed out in the back and a Hewlett-Packard TC1100 tablet laptop - equipped with 1.25GB of RAM, an Echo Indigo I/O sound card, and wireless capability - has been set in. The laptop gives the guitarist the choice of emailing, web sourcing, recording, or Webcaming - oh yeah; you can also play guitar.
Righto. I'm a guitarist, and a geek, and even I think this is too much. Absolutely pointless. And what about buckle kisses on the back. There goes that lovely screen. And I can't see it being very beer resistant. The only thing that I think would be cool is if the webcam was either in the headstock looking down the neck, or on the body going up the neck, or even pointing towards the crowd. But no... it's on the back. Thats a great shot of your THIGH!!!!

    I didnt know there was a webcam in the new guitar BUT WHY IN THE BACK why not in the front or even in the pickup cavity to see the fast picking that is in some songs. The thing that I think is realy cool is that it has a laptop in it but there is the downsides some people could play a piece of music on the laptop and instantly become famuos guitarists so our verdict is “NO!!!!!! NOT IN A MILLION YEARS unless you want to show off like us here at toatal guitar” he he lol
