I’ve been saying this point for a while now with some of Apple’s more recent products, eg. the the MBAir. The time/cost/money involved to produce an expensive product for which there is a very small market and will not draw the crowds from the MB or MB Air. As for this concept, its seems like too large an expense to put another display on the rear when the majority of designers will never use it or the display will be against the wall. Even if we think in theory of the display being in an open plan space, where a designer can work on his/her material, and the manager can see the work when finished without having to walk around and crowd the designer. This leads to the question of whether or not the rear screen shows the same images as what is happening on the front side? Does this mean, when somebody is not working, their superiors will be able to see them slacking off? Another interesting point would be that the screen would not be big enough that benefit would be derived from a curved screen! And finally, back to my first point, why would Apple waste time/effort/money on a rear screen?

And, yes, I know this is just a concept. Looks cool though.
