Is NVIDIA Teasing a Laptop with Two Screens?

On its Twittah account, NVIDIA has been teasing a video. The video shortly prior to Easter seems to show a bit of an easter egg and looks to show a laptop that has two displays.

If it's the case then it could be a Lenovo Yoga style laptop. And now for a bit of speculation, we did hear rumors about a new Shield eh? Perhaps an Nvidia Shield in laptop form. Admittedly, ASUS and MSI also show the video on social media, which indicates that it could be a more broadly targeted product. Speculation it is, but it is interesting.

I don't know, that could just be a highly reflective bottom that mirrors the screen.

I would never buy a laptop with a touch screen keyboard, better to have a secondary slide out screen for dual monitoring.

I totally agree. It surprises me how multi-display laptops are practically non-existent. Companies keep thinking that everyone wants ultrabooks, which are nice, but I'm very certain some people would be willing to sacrifice a centimeter or two of thickness for a dual-screen laptop (with a keyboard). Such a device would really only appeal to workstations and gamers - obviously the average person has no practical use for something like this.

I was thinking that few years back till i got a new monitor and since i had nothing to do with my old one i put it next to my main one ....oh.....my.....god ! Even in gaming having a second monitor so you do not have to alt tab to do a google search check something or even change the music playlist is a big bonus to the experience ! Nowdays when i have to work or even play on a pc with out 2 monitors it frustrates me! I will gladly take a hit in portability weight and thickness to have 2 monitors on a laptop , touch screen keyboard is a big no no though.

Or two slide out screens, one left, one right for a triple monitor setup.

I feel like this has been done already no?

Not an unwelcome design though, I can see the uses for someone needing dual screens on the go while carrying a separate kb+m
