Intel and Samsung are getting ready for 'slidable' PCs
Samsung Display and Intel are working on "slidable" PCs. During Intel's Innovation keynote today, Samsung Display CEO JS Choi appeared onstage to show off a prototype PC that slides from a 13-inch tablet into a 17-inch display.
"We're announcing the world's first 17-inch slidable display for PCs," said Choi. "This device will satisfy various needs for a larger screen and portability as well." Samsung Display has chosen to implement a sliding (rather than foldable) technology for its flexible PC displays, and Choi appeared to indicate that "foldable is gone" on PCs for now.

Pretty easy to predict that this is going to fail. Sure, we need more moving parts and a bending screen for no reason or benefit.

More moving parts == more things that can break == reason for customer to buy a new one. Seems like a no-brainer to me.
