Wow that is hot. It's amazing how technology has advanced in such a short period of time. It'll be very interesting to see where it goes in the near future.

That shit is still 5-10 years out. Flexible OLEDs are only small prototypes right now.

my question is will it run Adobe Flash and can it multi-task?

Don't like the rollup part. Not good for a briefcase.

It's also running the wrong OS.

alright well this one goes back to Sept 2009 but the concept of a roll-up laptop goes back to 2006 or so.

yeah this concept is not new at all. This is just a CGI concept and is nowhere near close to reality or even hardware prototype.

Honestly it looks stupid to me. that battery/dock thing be tethered to the laptop is the ghey and very impractical. Only way I'd put up with that is if it was wireless and transferred power/ data to the laptop wirelessly. That'd be something to talk about.

Get a Mac

Somehow I have a feeling the software you use requires Windows....

Yup, plus I just don't want to spend the extra for an "Apple" to then run windows on it.

Looking at the Lenovo T410s.

I want light weight, 13-14" screen, light weight.

Also considering the Dell Inspiron Z13.

^looks nice, but the processor is a bit lacking and I am concerned about the durability.

Th T series may weigh a 'little' more, but the features are pretty darn good.

Light weight is more important than ultra thin to me,although thin is good.

no, netbooks have a single core atom processor with 1gb of RAM and a 10in screen. The u350 has a core 2 duo, 3gb of RAM and a 13.3in screen. If so then the 13in macbook pro is just a netbook cause it has a core 2 duo, less RAM, a smaller hard drive and the same size screen as the u350 and yet costs over twice as much.
