The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

    The only issue that I have with the glasses-free 3D tech that I saw at CES earlier this year is that it depends on the notebook's webcam being able to identify your face and adjust the 3D so you can properly see the 3D effect from where you are. This also limits the number of people who can view the 3D content at the same time.

    Granted, most of the time there will just be one or two people looking at a notebook screen but 3D will glasses has no limit on the number of people who can view the 3D content at the same time.

    What if more companies used the tech in the Kinect to monitor people watching the TV?
