Ironically the first thought I had looking at this was "this would make a really great prop for some scifi movie". My second thought was "this looks horrendous to actually use as a laptop". Non-physical buttons suck as car manufacturers recently discovered, and aside from looking cool there's virtually no positives to a transparent laptop screen and a whole raft of negatives.

So yeah, very cool concept, utterly crap product.
