The accordion-screen laptop was pretty cool.

Yeah, I can see how that would be nice to have sometimes.

I think they're both decent concepts, especially the one with the screen on an arm. I know I'd find that handy. On the other hand, I'd call the sliding-screen one useless if it a. wasn't a tablet, and b. didn't have that docking ability. That vertical docking station with the speakers is nice.

I dunno all that sliding around on hinges doesn't sound like it would last long.

Yeah I agree, it's a cool idea but would end up being a mechanical nightmare.

I'm trying to imagine how it would work...trying to make your display cables slide a full 8" or so, that would be tricky to do reliably

Even the iBooks ran into problems when Apple routed all the cables into that one tiny little hinge. They wore and got pinched.
