Cool(er) laptops!!

-200 points posted to IdeaStorm, Monitors and Displays, New Product Ideas by doc Feb 12

Heres a good idea!! How about a laptop that has Two screens but on the SAME rotating point. You know as in you do some work on one screen the flip your display around and Voila! you can now log onto the internat without having to interupt your first work. Good isnt it? Handy too.Well ill be writing more soon keep looking.

Feb 12		 Hey check it nice eh? Oh i wanted to know nif i can give ideas for gaming CONSOLES on this site?
jdelidc
Feb 12		 they won't be popular since dell don't do consoles. but you never know who reads this site. i'm pretty sure i'm not the only person in japan that reads it

Feb 12		 Interesting thought, but bad on the practical side. It leaves one screen at any given time exposed to damage, even if laptop is closed.

Feb 12		 make the 2nd screen extendable instead of doing 360's. i could see that getting busted a lot
jdelidc
Feb 12		 AAHHH. you beat me to it!!!
jdelidc
Feb 12		 didn't mean to click. i'm neutral on this
mkmaster78
Feb 12		 @jdelidc: i guess i'm just quicker on the draw :)

Feb 12		 Using Compiz on Linux lets one screen act like 4. I can rotate my Inspiron 1420n workspace and it only takes one physical screen.

Feb 12		 And windows has a powertool to enable 4 virtual desktops as well.

Feb 12		 it doesn't do a desktop cube though and only works in XP (as far as i know, it may work in vista but I am not sure.)
crimson117
Feb 12		 Yeah, who needs multiple LCD's when you can have multiple workspaces? Especially if you can't see both LCD's at once.

Feb 12		 I echo crimson117, again

Feb 13		 this is to mkmaster78:I mentioned a shutter thingy that closes one screen so that it dont get to scratched . You know like one on a camera.
mkmaster78
Feb 13		 @doc: there is no mention in this idea of any form of a shutter or other protective device.

Feb 13		 already lots of Windows virtual desktops on the market.

Feb 16		 This is a very bad Idea.

Windows has buy able Virtual Desktops but they aren't the nicest things to use If anyone has ever searched for them.

Major Linux Desktop Enviroments has a very nicely intergrated Virtual Desktop Enviroment.
E.G. Xfce or GNOME (GNOME is the default of Ubuntu Linux)
