Abstract

Computer display systems comprising back-to-back (BTB) dual screens that render the same display simultaneously on a primary and a slaved secondary screen, for face-to-face inter-active and collaborative purposes, inter alia, for education, sales, presentation, and collaboration between two or more persons. The inventive system is particularly suitable for laptop and netbook types of computers, and a wide range of integrated and accessory BTB dual-screen configurations are disclosed. The secondary screen can be rotated between the BTB dual screen collaborative orientation to an SBS GEM configuration for multi-screen display only to the user.

Claims

1. A portable laptop architecture having BTB dual screens, a primary, user screen and a secondary screen viewable by a client/customer/student in face to face collaborative relationship to the user.

2. A portable monitor system as in claim 1 wherein said secondary screen is rotatable from the BTB collaborative position to an SBS GEM orientation.
