Don’t wait for the Razer’s Project Valerie – build your own DIY 3 screen laptop

This might be one of the most nutty DIY projects I’ve seen. But that could be because it’s based on one of the craziest concepts I’ve seen. At CES, Razer unviled Project Valerie, a laptop that contained 3 monitors. Unfortunately, Razer say that at the moment, it’s basically a concept, and there’s just a couple of working prototypes. They’ve no idea where those working prototypes are right now, though, as they were apparently stolen.
