THIS ALREADY EXIST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Booo not Linux be more realistic PCs are known for Windows as OS

i would buy it 2

Awesome! I'd buy it. Please make linux work too.
- No need for two screens though. Just make a cover that protects it.
- Yes multitouch is a must
- protective cover could hold a full screen membrane or better keyboard too.
- Should be able to use a keyboard you also place next to it, without wires (an IR detector on each side would do the trick)
- I would also ask how about flash memory, and provide a hard disk you can unplug modularly any time so you can go and not worry about untoughened parts when kids touch it etc. You are going to be tapping drums on it right?
- Basically awesome. Heck do it with dual screen as posted and I'll buy one.

I love the idea completely! Asus needs to make it. it would be the next laptop id by and I would get it at release

The real revolution in this notebook is in the design of the software, we need a new interface that substitute the keyboard in every occasion that is not indispensable.
In this we can put voice recognize to dictate a e-mail or to "write" some notes

With a new interface and a touchscreen that can became everythink that a programmer can image... so you can have a book to read, a piano, a discjockey console, a table of the painter, a table with picture and other stuff that all the fantasy can fill like a white paper

maybe you can plug-in a external keybord

but the for me we have to focus in another point of you

we have to think in other way
we have two touchscreen that we have to use with hands, so design samethink that is easy to do with hands

pretty cool, inspired by the nintendo DS no doubt.

my only concern - this will be awful for typing, same as any other device where physical buttons are completely removed in favour of touchscreens. you'll need to keep looking at the keyboard far too much; handwriting is quite a bit slower and still unreliable too, as is voice recognition. Multi-touch makes it better, but you've still not got the tactile advantage. I've tried doing serious text entry on my tablet PC, and I must say it being a convertible one with an included (hideable) keyboard is the best combi.
(for similar reasons the piano-keyboard mode of use would only be good for beginners or basic sequencing entry - having to look at the keys to make sure you're hitting the right notes is the kiss of death for being a good pianist. kinaesthetics are more important than you think, in relation to Covering Everything With Displays)

maybe if there's a way of doing both of these in the one machine, though?

I do like the bongos and the concept of reading it like a book :)

I like it. But it may no longer be a dream. I think this dream PC is now being secretly prototype by Apple as the next IPhone based design, only slightly smaller... like the Sony Vaio P series. I think it is their entry to the netbook market. However Apple, like Sony, does not appeal to have a cheap version, unless someone beats them to the punch.

haha it is like mine! may be named touchDJ :D awesome

Close to perfection.
I would add a solar panel on the outside (closed) surface
