    Default twin screen laptop?

    I am not losing weight! I'm getting rid of it. I have no intention of finding it again!

    Growing old is inevitable. Growing up is optional

    Pointless, but then most laptops are imho as 90% of people only use them in 1 or possibly 2 places so a sff would probably be a better option for them.

    Gamer: i7 3820 @ 4.4Ghz~MSI X79A-GD65~16GB Redline 2133~Gigabyte GTX580~TT A90~CM SILENT PRO 1000w.

    Laptops aren't pointless, I like lying down on the sofa browsing the net and watching the telly after a long day at work... Sometimes you just don't have the energy to sit in front of a PC.

    And I thought the Whole point of a Laptop was the portability of it, I have a Dual Screen System on my PC, couldn't really NOT have a PC now with a Single Screen anymore...

    So the Idea is good, and I'm sure in time these will improve as well.
    The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist...

    ssalim :
    I don't think they understand the main purpose of laptop: compact, portable and lightweight.


    Some people want portable workstations; not necessarily laptops!
    I can't agree more with this comment, a portable workstation.

    Plus, i think it's a genius idea, way to set the benchmark

    That's a good point actually, how does it not fall over? Little stand on the back?
