hey what's up guys it's Marcus Brownlee here from mkbhd and today I'm going to be giving you my thoughts and opinions as well as a technical preview of the upcoming dual screen laptop PC Bhaiji screen called the space book so desktop dual screen and dual monitor setups have become more and more popular in the 21st century as I do offer massive amounts of screen real estate and make a workspace easier and more productive to work with plus they do have the cool factor a lot of people like well satisfy all you people out there who are as leaky as me and do like the dual screen setup a company based in Alaska called G screen is ready to release a dual screen laptop which would be the first ever of its kind and has gotten really good press coverage and a lot of hype in the past couple of weeks so I just wanted to give you guys a brief rundown and my overview of it so here it is guys this is the really nice picture that G screen Corp com their company website has featured on their website and it lives look extremely nice now you'll notice a couple of things about this preliminary picture first of all the fact that there are two monitors built into one laptop is a first the second thing is that those are actually supposed to be 15.4 inch individual displays so they're actually debating between a 15 16 or 17 inch inch initial G screen space book and you guys can help them decide which model they first release by following them on Twitter becoming a fan on Facebook and all sorts of other things which I'll include in the description of this video so if we scroll down a bit on the G screen comm space book home page you'll be able to view of the specs of the G screen space book that are there are thinking of releasing so we'll start from the top they are thinking that the 15.4 inch space book would weigh around eight point seven pounds and thus Facebook planned at launch would be a 16 inch and /or like I mentioned before a 17 inch space book you can choose between Windows 7 Windows Vista or Windows XP which is expected and you can choose between an Intel Core 2 Duo 3.5 3 gigahertz or an extremely powerful 2.8 gigahertz processor I'm running an Intel Core 2 quad and I have to say I really do like the Intel line of processors next on the list is the graphics card and chipset and you can see here the NVIDIA GeForce 9800 GT with a half of gig of ram that they're expecting to release it with is a very powerful graphics card and I'm excited for a laptop with a nice graphics card like this with two monitors and see how the graphics card holds up under the conditions that dual monitors would present for such a card now another one of the most important things to consider when purchasing a laptop is the hard drive size and this one will come with an either 250 gig or 500 gig SATA hard drive which is quite nice next on the list is communication and I actually have 802 11 B G and N wireless on my laptop and I've been extremely satisfied with it and this laptop is set to have an 802 11 n connection as well the next thing on the list is a 6 in-1 media card reader you may have heard of media card readers you might actually have one on your laptop and this one will read SD MMC and a number of other popular memory cards this next list here might look very standard but if we scroll down it I'm just going to give you an overview of what I find the most impressive first there's an one DC in Jack one headphone out and one mic jack that's also very standard one land with metal shielding a modem connector 3 USB ports which is decent and that'll also be that multimedia card reader and last but definitely not least an HDMI slot and this will be really nice if you want to hook up a third monitor to your dual screen laptop I really would love to be able to do something like that have a HDMI monitor connected to my dual screen laptop that would just be an awesome looking setup it's set to be released in quarter of 4 of 2009 which is around December right now and it's actually going to have a nine cell battery which is actually a decent sized battery with the 17 inch HP laptop I'm running right now with a 9 cell battery I can get around 2 hours of battery life however with a graphics card that heavy and with two screens on the laptop I'm guessing it's going to run around an hour and a half maximum for something like this on windows 7 so if you guys want to check all of this out you guys can visit the G screen Corp comm home page and also check out their blog where they post some nice things about the specs and the the coverage they've been getting for press and it's been really nice to read about the history and the development of the G screen space book and as well as all that the press they've gotten in the past couple of weeks so again I will have all the links to this in the description their blog their main website their Twitter and their Facebook pages as well as some neat pictures and things that I found to show you guys at the end of this video so if you guys want to check out those pictures and everything else gets check in the description and it would be really awesome if I could get a review unit from G screen that would be absolutely awesome and I would definitely do a number of videos about the hardware the software and the integration with the dual monitors so this has been mkbhd and thank you for watching this little overview video of the G screens Facebook and I'll talk to you guys in the next video you
