I remember childhood camping trips and the simple dinners cooked on our green, Coleman camping stove. You open the top and then each side to keep the wind from blowing out your flame. Mac Life's new triBook concept follows the same design--two fold-out screens that increase your viewing to 21 diagonal inches. The additional screens just fold up and are somehow stored between the main screen and the keyboard. Moving parts and their longevity always worry me a bit, but attached to Apple's single-piece frame, the hinges are more secure.
