With its first laptop, gScreen Computer Corp. will deliver 4.6 million pixels of desktop real estate with the Spacebook’s dual 17-inch LED screens, for under $3,000.
But the likely buyers of the hefty (8.7 pounds) laptop, graphics and engineering professionals as well as avid hobbyists, may have to wait until after this holiday season to buy the Spacebook. The little-known Alaska-based firm said last month on its blog that it was “hopeful that we may have a limited number” of Spacebooks available by the end of the year, for the U.S. and Canadian markets only.
However, gScreen said last week that it planned a “pre-sale event” on December 15th, and confirmed the screen size of its first model and the target list price of $2,895. gScreen did not immediately return requests for clarification.
