What a dumb concept, no wonder they didn't bother to market it. Why have a tiny useless screen directly under a cramped oddly-sized screen? One larger screen overall makes up for all that wasted space on either side of the tiny 2nd screen. I would also add that other laptops have offered SLI video and similar performance in amuch sexier and sleeker package...

This laptop is epic fail... making 50 or 60 of them was 50 or 60 too many.

Lugging this beast to class would have been awesome. You could almost hide behind this thing during a lecture.

I wasted many a class period playing Diablo II over the wifi, but I would hate to know that people walking by on the sidewalks could see what I was doing.

I'm sorry. Until I see what kind of bacon he eats, I'm not buying.

Something's off here. I suspect that Mr. McKinney eats Canadian bacon and until he proves otherwise I don't trust him. I think the waffle is a distraction.

@OMG! Ponies!: It's called skillet ham now. It does none of us any good to tarnish the word bacon by stapling it to a meat-borne hockey puck.

Sorry, but without lots of fruit and a gob of whipped cream, there is nothing to show. What a sad and lonely waffle.

Interesting concept, however its practicality I just can't wrap my mind around.

@Kaiser-Machead: In lieu of bacon, one may substitute a nice crispy piece of fatback. A fried salmon patty is also acceptable.

@ANSIx12: Bacon and fatback are not interchangeable. If I want cracklins, I'll eat cracklins. But usually, I eat cracklins when fishing - not for breakfasts. I don't even eat cracklins at second breakfasts.

Fried salmon patties? Perhaps gravlax. But that's completely different from a salmon patty.

Congratulations. You fail at breakfast.

@OMG! Ponies!: Ah, you just don't know what's good. Add Scrapple to the list too while we're at it. Man, I'm all hungry and stuff now,... Thanks guys/gals. ...Guess it's waffles and bacon for dinner.

No really, thanks guys, that sounds great!
