Intel Shows Laptop With Four Screens
Intel is showing off a prototype laptop this week that has four screens, increasing the display area so that multiple applications can be viewed simultaneously.
The laptop has a primary LCD screen in the usual position and three small OLED (organic light-emitting diode) touch screens just above the keyboard. Code-named Tangent Bay, the system is being shown at the Intel Developer Forum in San Francisco.
The prototype on display here isn't particularly stylish-looking, but the extra screens might add some convenience. In a demonstration, they were used to display a music playlist, a photo album and a calculator, which could all be operated via the touch screens while running a different application on the main screen.
