TechEBlog has a cool little pair of guitars that also happen to be PCs (or are they PCs that also happen to be guitars? Go ask Chuang Tzu). The one in the video above is actually a touchscreen laptop embedded into a guitar body and appears to have working frets and all. I’m thinking he needs to take it easy on the delay a little bit (bwee-ow-ow-ow-ow-ow), but it might be fun to play a guitar like that. The other is a little more functional as a PC, with what looks like a pretty solid setup. Seems like it might affect the acoustics of the instrument, though.
