My next computer 🤩😍😮 Posted @withrepost • @cnet Still dreaming of owning a small laptop with a big screen? Intel may have figured it out. Thanks to new folding display technology, Intel has a prototype PC called Horseshoe Bend that could offer just that. The prototype PC screen measures 17.3 inches diagonally, a notch bigger than the display in Apple's latest high-end MacBook Pro. So, what can you actually do with this thing? Let's get into it 👇 You can partially fold it into a regular clamshell laptop shape but its enormous screen sweeps down from the top all the way to where the keyboard would go. To type, you can use either a virtual keyboard or, if you're squeezed into an airline seat, magnetically attach the physical keyboard that covers the bottom portion of the screen. With the keyboard snapped on, it's like a regular laptop 12.5-inch screen. However, folding screens raise new design problems, like fitting the screen's full length inside as you fold it, and it took months for Intel to come up with solutions. But with the 7.75mm-thick Horseshoe Bend, Intel solves the problem by using two hinges in parallel to link the top and bottom halves of the laptop according to Mikko Makinen, a product design engineer.
