Razer's Triple Monitor Gaming Laptop Concept: Project Valerie
What more could a gamer want than a 4K display on their laptop? How about packing three of them into one machine. Razer's ambitious new Project Valerie concept offers just that, cramming two fold-out displays into a laptop chassis that lets you get an immersive multi-monitor experience wherever you go. Razer described Project Valerie as the “first automated triple-display laptop.” It features three 17.3-inch 4K displays and a built-in mechanical keyboard. As soon as the laptop opens, two monitors slide out of the sides of the main one and adjust automatically in place. Although this is just a concept, it is a very interesting concept, and if properly executed it could be a very exciting machine. For the time being, it is being shown at CES as a working prototype, which means it is possible it may be put into production.

Snapchat Ex-Employee Sues Company Over False Growth Numbers
Anthony Pompliano, a former Snapchat employee, has filed a lawsuit that alleging the company lied to him about Snapchat’s growth metrics while recruiting him for its business operations team in August 2015 from Facebook. Pompliano worked in Snapchat’s business operations department for three weeks before his firing in September 2015. He stated in court papers Wednesday that the company has lied about the reason for his termination since then, hindering his ability to land another job in the social media industry. "Mr. Pompliano was terminated because he refused to participate in a scheme to deceive the public and artificially inflate Snapchat's valuation in anticipation of its” initial public stock offering, the lawsuit states.

Acer's Predator 21 X to Become First Gaming Laptop to Offer Curved Display
Acer has launched another mind-blowing gaming computer at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES 2017) in Las Vegas. With a whopping price tag of $8999, Acer's monstrous Predator 21 X will become the first ever gaming laptop to offer a curved display. This beast of a machine features a curved 21-inch display that offers a resolution of 2560×1080 pixels with 120Hz refresh rate, as well as G-Sync support to eliminate visual artifacts and issues like screen tearing. The Predator 21 X is quite the literal heavyweight as well, weighing in at 19.4 pounds. The device runs on an 7th-generation Intel Core i7-7820HK Kaby Lake processor and comes paired with two GeForce GTX 1080 graphics processors in SLI configuration.

Kaspersky Users Vulnerable to Attacks
Travis Ormandy, a Google Security Engineer, has discovered a Kaspersky vulnerability. The issue lies when it intercepts HTTPS traffic to scan for online threats. Kaspersky Lab updated the program to fix the issue that exposed users to interception attacks when browsing the web. Unfortunately, with many websites using HTTPS, it's not possible to simply scan the web traffic coming to the browser. As of December 28th, the problems in the software were fixed. >>Source

Great issue. Thanks for featuring my thread too, really would like some more suggestions on it. Hopefully being featured here will drive more.
I'm like a crushed light bulb, all out of shine.
I'm so scared of the future so I stay stuck, broken in to pieces and my spirit's all taped up.
