    Except that thing looks hideous....I'd rather have a laptop that has two equal screen sizes that slide out then a humongo screen and a cheap side screen...blech

    i prefer the two identical screens over the lenovo.

    the lenovo would only rock if you could slide out a tiny screen on the left and the right. that would definitely rock :)
