The CAD files have been released under a Creative Commons license. The machine is tentatively named OpenBook.

I like this company more and more each time I read something about them and plan to refit all my pcs with Via processors.
Just got to love their concepts and think its the way forward for us in the developing world amidst the current energy challenges.
