    Have you ever wanted to break your laptop in half at the hinge? Lenovo’s Yoga 13 lets you do just that – sort of. This laptop has a large touchscreen that bends over the keyboard allowing you to prop up the laptop like a tent or show the display to another person in front of you.

    It’s very similar to the old-fashioned convertible laptop except the screen doesn’t quite twist. It runs Windows 8.

    When the keyboard is face-down it is disabled and an on-screen keyboard appears. Why you would want to do this is beyond the scope of this post but it looks pretty cool. It will be available in the “second half of 2012″ in limited areas.
