There’s no doubt in my mind bendable displays will be the norm in the not too distant future. Remember Fujitsu’s chubby little foldable laptop concept? Niels van Hoof is thinking along the same lines with his “Feno” folding laptop concept.

We loved the concept of an ultraportable gaming laptop, but we had a few complaints.

The switching is automatically controlled which serves to give you a boost in graphical processing power with ION 2 when you need it, and switch back to integrated graphics when you don’t in order to save battery life.
