Hah, I’ve got a case like that. Looks like they ripped out all the dividers and paper holders to do that.
It’s not really a Bond gadget until it has a can of surprise smokescreen, a stun gun, a regular gun, or a device that helps him seduce the female spy on the opposite side.
Or all four.
What would be the point? He’s already got that stuff in his watch.
Why would you do this? Why, oh god why? This can’t work without the biggest LCD you can fit.
This is exactly what I envision whenever someone tells me they run Linux on their laptop.
I nearly lashed out in nerd rage before realizing that I have one of these.
The other laptop that’s still a laptop, though, is quite happy on Linux. = )
I saw something like that, it was called Dell. It ran Windows.
Hey, I think I know the guy who did this. He is a field technician who got tired of having his laptops being robbed everytime he had an assignment for cell phone base station controllers in isolated areas. He then packed a desktop computer in a case, which has no commercial value for the specialized gangs that rob filed technicians with expensive equipment.
That’s obviously in Brazil.
After the netbook and iPad, here the revolutionary 40 pound briefcasebook!
the prototype was 120 lbs. success!
And because it’ll be such a pain in the butt to haul around, I think I’ll call it “The ‘Roid”
Still more attractive than the microsoft Surface oddity.
If he wires up a wireless network connector to it, then he can enjoy “wireless” networking at the Starbucks.
In a world where the MPAA and RIAA have Banned computers, only the criminals have them.
The criminals I have met would toss the electronics to make more room for the Ben’s.
Hah! All you Apple fanboyz with your fancy iPads and iPhones and iPods and iThis and iThat! You ain’t cool till you got one of these! Take THAT Steve Jobs!
Wait. Look back at what you have. Then look at what we have. Then rethink your post.
Is the iThat already available? …gotta go…..
I don’t know about the iThat, but the iChing is available.
i’m sorry….I gotta laugh at this cuz I had flashes of just this device the last time I went to my local BestFry’s PuterPlace. “What do you mean this laptop costs 1500.00. I know dam well I can build one faster for 1/2 that.” That was me to the little pimpled irate micro geek. He looks at me with the most crap eatinist, I know more about computers grinn on his face and says, ” uhhh yaaa but then you can’t carry it around when you want to play Gears of War Craft.” To which I staunchly reply….” You wannna bet”…. Needless to say i’m 1500 + lighter in the pocket book. Damm you Sony and Apple…DAMU to hell….. now to log on to Gears of Hooters…..
…and Windows 7 was my idea.
Win! lol
For just a moment, I was having a STNG moment expecting John de Lancie to show up in the pic.
Looks like somebody heard about the suitcase nuke and said “hold on, that gives me an idea!.”
This is just a variation on something very common in a datacenter called a crash cart.
Basically when you have 1000s of headless boxes in a very large datacenter, a portable monitor/keyboard/mouse is priceless.
They have tiny little 1U ones that slide in the rack itself these days, but those are still too $$ for most places.
Actually, this here is a portable computer. As in, monitor, keyboard, mouse AND box. So, while I appreciate you working in such an awesome place and all, this is an entirely different kind of awesome.
Actually, I think when Q needs a break, he just goes and annoys Picard for a while.
this just a computer for the traveling business man.
