Here's the first photograph of the prototype Web PC that Oracle CEO Larry El
lison unveiled in January at a trade show in Japan.
Designed by Frogdesign, this multimedia version of the Web PC has room for a built-in CD-ROM player and vertical speakers. Oracle has trademarked the name Network Computer and is negotiating with several Asian companies to manufacture variations of this reference design.
Oracle also has a prototype for a laptop Network Computer.
