    It is a laptop, it's got a CPU and memory and screen, and it takes USB keyboard. More specs: http://www.dualscreen.com/specs.cfm

    it doesn't have a keyboard... so you have to carry that around as well...

    Note that it DOES have a USB Keyboard port:

    I think that's very smart... they might be right in saying the future of mobile computing is keyboard-less, but that's a hard sell to make to those of us that are so used to using them.

    The early PDA people thought the same way.. they said that a stylus was all you needed... or maybe an onscreen keyboard, but those fold-up portable keyboards are VERY popular for folks that actually need to do substantial amounts of work on their PDA.

    But yes, you do need to carry the keyboard around too, unless it somehow attaches to the system.

    probably also has a heavy external PSU...

    According to the spec sheet, it's got a "Lithium Ion battery for 2 Hours+ usage between charges". Granted two hours is pretty dang short compared to most laptops, but what do you expect for dual 15" screens (even if the shape makes them smaller than regular 15" screens)?

  10. Power and simplicity? by PhilHibbs · · Score: 5, Funny · on Multi-head Meets the Laptop
    From www.dualscreen.com:
    the 2-VU combines the power of a computer with the simplicity of a book
    So it doesn't need batteries, then, and boots instantly? Cool!
