    No. Laptops are still laptops. You’re just choosing not to use them as such. In fact, they’re more lap friendly now than they originally were. With how you describe using yours, you should just have a mini pc instead of a laptop.

      Sure. How silly of pretty much every office in the world to issue employees with laptops instead of mini PC’s.

      Walk in to a library or Cafe anywhere in the world and you’ll see laptops, on desks and not on laps.

        Yeah, and how many libraries you see with laptops on em and people with second monitors attached that people also carry? People put them on desks at libraries because libraries provide large desks. That doesn’t give you an extra amount of monitor.

          A lot, actually.

            Funny. I’ve never seen even one. Sure would be simpler if the laptop just had a double screen built in.

              I guess we don’t go to the same libraries?

              What even is your angle here? No one cares what you think about my set up, my self least of all.

                I’d ask the same about you, but you’re also the one arguing it’s a pointless product.

                  Hmm, it’s not “pointless”, I just wouldn’t buy one given that it’s inevitably going to be prone to failure.

                  I guess we will find out in 5 years or so.
