This laptop is encased in a precision-hewn piece of slate, the type used for chalkboards in the classrooms of old.
Not only does the surface resemble a cool, matte, round-edged monolith, it can also accept the application of chalk should the need to take a quick note arise, or to continue to perform
calculations after the battery runs out.
Peripherals include set of 5 coloured chalks and a fabric board-rubber.
reverse idea...

Obsolete laptops needn't be dumped in landfill - they can be used for roofing. |
|
|
This is a better idea than my offering, which is far too practical, so I'm voting for this. |
|
|
I propose "One Slate Per Child". They'll be far more useful than laptops in regions with no electrical power or Internet access. |

I deleted Lap-top Lay-bys, though I still like the name. |

I've used that chalkboard paint before, it works pretty well. Someone with a laptop should try this. :) |
|
|
I think this is a great idea [+]. A laptop made out of one of
those magnetic-powder writing thingies (you know...) would
have a lot of appeal too. |
|
|
I'm growing my fingernails longer in anticipation of
this idea coming to fruition. ( And what [wagster]
said.) |
|
|
Here's hoping you have a way to make it shatter-proof. Slate is incredibly brittle. Chalkboard paint would be better. |
|
|
Laptops are the reason that most schools went away from chalkboards in the first place. The dust is killer. |
