Apple Tribook Concept
I noticed this while browsing the news stand. Assuming the screens fold in and don't slide into the main screen, I feel sorry for the poor guy who has to sit next to a tribook owner on a long flight.

I was going to mention something about that but I figured apple would introduce its dual palm gesture recognition software to fix that problem.

Interesting, but whoever mocked that up obviously hasn't used a laptop before... resting your hand when using the trackpad or typing would be a right pain in the ass
I would be very suprised if this kind of concept would evolve into real laptop someday...doesn`t seem very practical. But well...it looks very nice, i wonder how i would look as a real hardware ?
Apple is more focusing on mobility, this is not practical/mobile.. it would be cool for home computers
it might be more of an office replacement for a desktop computer. System Specialists... etc.
