Yeah, hanging out with other people playing games isn't at all sociable or having a life. I guess you sit down the pub getting lashed on your smartphone like a ream personOriginally posted by SlipTheJab View PostLet me check... oh hang on I have a life!

I know this may shock you, but other people may have differing requirements.

Most planes have decent 110/240V supplies in them now too, but you'll not get a 3 monitor set up onto your table.
And that's where I see this as a solution to no known problem.
The idea of a laptop is portability and usability - set it on your lap, a small table, or on a crowded table. It doesn't take up much space to carry or to use.
To use a 3 screen laptop, you need a lot of space around you.…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment
