Want to Turn Your Notebook Into A Desktop ?

TheFuture — Sun, 02 Sep 2007 15:11:28 +0000

Yes, it might be possible somewhere in the future, thanks to Yong-Seong Kim concept, this kind of thing might can be done. The whole idea of notebook docks was interesting 10+ years ago when we had to be frugal with our I/O ports and live with subpar LCD screens. Now that notebooks have pretty much caught up with desktops, do we really need another docking solution? According to designer Yong-Seong Kim, we do.

His go-anywhere desktop docking solution calls for a large slot behind the LCD display. This is where you slide your notebook in, allowing you to access all its information from a desktop form factor. The notebook?s screen also becomes your second display, in portrait mode of course. It?s an interesting concept isn’t it ?
