Hewlett Packard has revealed a new laptop concept, dubbed the Firefly, that has a couple new features. One, it has a 4.3-inch LCD display underneath the main display: for some reason. Two, the trackpad has been moved to the right side of the keyboard rather than located at center-stage. Interesting. Even more interesting is the question of why it ways 13 pounds.
