The Fender Telecaster has existed in more or less the same guise for over 50 years, and has made an incalculable contribution to rock and roll. The personal computer has been around less than half that time, and made a vast amount of bleepy doofy music. Now, at last, they're together. The concisely named Intel Fender Telecaster Concept Guitar has nothing less than an entire Hewlett Packard TC1100 tablet laptop computer built into its body. Not only does this enable you to email your friends between songs (seriously, that's what the press release says…), but it has a high-quality sound card built in. This means you can record your rock and/or roll straight to the built-in PC. Interesting idea, but then again, so was the Internet surfboard…
