Panasonic Dual-LCD PC

FreeBSD-RockS writes: "Panasonic released a desktop PC called Panacom LC/W with two 15-inch (1024x768) LCD monitors arranged side by side. The LCD screens can be arranged so that they can be used either in a portrait or a landscape form. The new model will be put on sale on March 8 and the retail price through direct marketing is around $2000 USD."

    I'm thinking I'd rather see that available as a separate monitor, than as an integrated, all-in-one PC.

    After all, the PC will eventually (rapidly?) become obsolete... While the LCDs would be a hot piece of hardware for much longer.

    The link in the story was already slashdotted so I found some pics on Panasonic's Japanese homepage

    I like the pic at the bottom of the page showing how you can flip one screen around facing away from you so that two people sitting at a table facing each other both get a screen.

    With a multi-tasking OS, one user could use the mouse and the other the keyboard and work on seperate tasks.

    Ford decided to add a spoiler to this years Escort.

    Dell released a PC today with 4 USB ports! (Now you surf the information superhighway twice as fast! - Dude, you're getting a Dell!)

    Pleez,
