Mark Hachman/IDGĪsus trotted out some unfamiliar phrases to describe how software makes dual-screen laptops great – A.I. software to shift between modes automatically and on-the-fly. This is actually another example of how “software is eating the world.” A physical hardware feature is being replaced by a screen because the screen can use A.I.
That’s a lot of Ks for a small, thin laptop.Īsus’s demo revealed the magic pixie dust that will make the world safe for dual-screen laptops – Artificial intelligence (A.I.). Īsus unveiled its Project Precog concept laptop, a Windows 10 device with two 4k screens. Computex is an annual trade show focusing on PCs. If anyone had doubts about the dual-screen trend, they should have been erased this week after Taiwan’s Computex event. New technology emerged this week that brings the fuzzy future of dual-screen laptops into focus. While today’s business laptop users hate the idea of giving up physical keyboards, they’ll eventually discover that it’s a small price to pay for all the new goodies dual laptops deliver. By adding a second screen to a laptop, you transform what it is, how it works and what you can do with it. The reason is obvious: While physical keyboards are superior for typing, screens are superior for every other kind of interface.
