Yes, a "convertible" computer may be a new class of computers.

Desktops, laptops, then convertibles.

The CPU - about the size of paperback novel, 4 gig HD, 64 MB RAM, contains removable slim CD ROM, one USB port for keyboard/mouse/monitor/printer. Power from included transformer brick.

Accessories:

"slimdock" that holds power supply and easy connectors for monitor/keyboard/mouse/speakers, additional HD or peripherals.

Comes with a kit to "hang" it off the side of your desk with velcro (yes, it's that lite). You can plug in your VGA monitor, projector, whatever.

If you need to take it on the road, slide the CPU out and into a "traveller" which contains batteries, keyboard, trackpad and LEP (light emitting polymer) screen.

Executive traveller: slide CPU into small belt-mounted case that contains batteries and jack for VR glasses and voice rec headset. software set in ROMs.
