The Core i7 Laptop With Dual 17'' 1080P LCDs
The more the merrier.
Nearly two years ago, we learned about a laptop concept that had two full-sized screens. At the time, it was spec'ed with two 15.4-inch screens, but now gScreen is nearly ready for rollout and has cranked it up to two full 1080P 17-inch screens.
gScreen calls it the SpaceBook, and it features Core i7 and i5 processors – up from the original's Core 2 Duo model two years ago. The dual-screened laptop is meant for professionals with special requirements, so it's great that the screens come in both a matte and glossy option.
The Windows Team Blog has a post on this machine, and in it is a quote from Gordon Stewart, GScreenCorp’s CEO and the father of the SpaceBook, on how such a laptop came to be: “A few years ago I was working on a film project in Hawai’i and realized that I was going to have to move my entire desktop setup down there from my home in Anchorage to get the computing power and screen real-estate I needed. That hassle made me realize that I couldn’t be the only one who needed a powerful laptop with massive screen size, so I set out to build one.”
The Core i5 model starts at $2395 and the Core i7 model is $2795. Check it all out here.




But true enough, while the included GPU is enough for most uses, it would have been nice to have the opportunity to get a bigger one, for video rendering & so on.
Same goes for HDD: no SSD for such an high end machine? Really? A combo SSD + HDD would have been sweet.
that's very disappointing as well as the price being slightly high.
and the battery life is what again..?

Battery life yes probably the one issue of it all, of course, but still. Laptobs i dont think are the same, hence the GTS 250(m) rather that mtters or not, who knows. Could just be there for something different.

Sounds like a Mac. But at least they give you two screens.
