"In this digital era, the 'display approach' by representing no 'real' products, is manifested by projecting their images on screens; the whole concept in this HP demo room is to provide an online tour for all patrons." says Arthur Chan (DPWT Design Ltd.) on HP Demo Room.

This HP demo room exhibits nothing but the virtual.

In this digital era, the 'display approach' by representing no "real" products, is manifested by projecting their images on screens; the whole concept in this HP demo room is to provide an online tour for all patrons. Thus, all that one needs to update is the software rather than the "hardware" (the exhibits).
