Twin-Screen Vista Laptops 176
An anonymous reader writes ""Asus has shown off a prototype of the first
dual-screen laptop, the W5Fe. These laptops, bearing the Intel codename 'Newport' have a standard screen on the inside plus a smaller, additional colour display on the outside of the lid. The second display is capable of showing video, flight departure information, movie show times, alerts, games, movies, images and MP3s, all while the laptop is switched off. According to CNET, the battery requirement for such a screen is minimal — with standard laptop batteries providing hundreds of hours of use."

Business suit: "But miss, my laptop IS turned off!"
Hostess: "Then why is that external screen still working?"
Business suit: "Beats me!"
Hostess: "Security! We have a suicide bomber with a laptop countdown bomb!"
Or something...

Oh sorry I didn't know you're after a bitchfest, I would've brought my heavy dictionary so we can be pedantic together on what "turned off laptop" means.

That's funny. I thought the screen faced that way so you could, you know, see it while using the laptop.
