Rolltop Computer

In 2010, some people drooled over a concept video from Orkin Design for a laptop with a flexible screen that rolls up into a magic scroll of sorts. That's called rool top.

The design firm recently released an updated concept video.
But the Rolltop is so far no closer to becoming reality.
The designers say they weren't thinking of making Rolltop into a product at first, but were so delighted by the warm response their concept received, they decided to move ahead with it.
The Rolltop 3.0 is envisioned as having a flexible OLED multitouch display
 that can be used as a 17-inch laptop screen.

When it's not being used, the screen rolls up into an 11-inch tube. It curls around a base tower that houses a Webcam, loudspeaker, and detachable power supply and cable that doubles as a shoulder strap. Check it out in the video below.
