This is the first time i saw a notebook that have a screen which can be divided by two and 13.3 inch per screen. Do you saw it before?
This has to be the worlds largest laptop when unfolded which measures about 19.5″ across when you unfold it. This company had a great idea on the hinging concept because the entire laptop folds twice making it very portable.
The keyboard is functional and it does type and you can enter the bios but I have not been able to go past that since I do not have a hard drive cable (which appears to be a custom cable with 1mm pitch) and I do not have a CD Rom for the unit. I have tried to getting it to boot of an external USB CD Rom but it would not detect that. The small plastic latches that hold the screen in place when it is all folded up are broken but does not effect it that much. Trackpoint is missing from the middle of the keyboard but the touch pad should work but have never booted to windows to confirm.
This product is sold by Xentex in 2002, for about $5000(RM16,081.00) and this product is still a prototype of the company. Now the product is place in ebay and currently bid is US$643.00. Feel want bring it back to your home, faster go Xentex Dual 13.3 Screen Laptop Page for bid it, the highest bid will get the laptop back to home.

That is crazy! I have never seen a laptop like this before!
me also. But feel like this laptop still not a complete set of laptop. Still left some specification not yet done.
a good read.
