Samsung GS3 spider laptop

This is basically just Samsung version of the lapdock that moto had from the atrix. I think its a great idea that moto half assed. I would love to have everything on 1 device. I would get this ib a heart best if i didn't game or edit videos on my pc. We are getting to the point where most people could easily use there phones processing power to do just about everything they need. My fear is that main stream consumers would grasp the concept. That this could do everything you need. But i doubt the mainstream would grasp how great of a idea it is like the chromebook. My question is could any of you see yourself computing mainly on this.

As i stated before if it wasnt for gaming,video editing or dev work i could easily see myself using this

If it ran ChromeOS when you docked it then yes. Or something similar. Not some reworked version of Android, though. Full blown Linux of some kind of ChromeOS (not sure either is really "light" enough to be smooth on phone hardware, though). I would guess that Linux would have to be limited to run smoothly. Imagine having 50 tabs in Chrome open LOL.

I see what your saying. But if you ran Linux or Chrome you would lose the point of having 1 os and 1 device. The padfone is a good example. It shows 1 device can do all the basics. I know a few people who use transformer primes as there only PC. There are apps for everything out there. Besides gaming and full x86 apps what couldn't this device do.

Ok, how about you combine the two ideas. Run a Linux SoC on the dock and the phone provides the kernel. I guess that could get funky when you start talking ROMs but it could be a start.
