If you angle the hinges a little bit slightly back from straight vertical does the whole thing flop over?

  It should be possible to place batteries and other heavy components as far as possible from the hinge to balance the screens up to a better angle than in the photo. Why they didn't prefer a less tall configuration (e.g. three landscape screens in a row like the frankly more sane Razer Project Valerie prototype) escapes me.

    I'm not sure if even lead acid batteries could provide balance for that tipping moment. Maybe a brick of pure lead. Doesn't look as k-rad if it was more practical. Of all the "no compromise" design goals I don't think sane or practical was among them.

    Thanks for the feedback. We investigated the 3 landscape screen orientation but decided that 2x 17.3 4K Panels in portrait orientation is excellent for coding when paired with 2x 17.3 4K landscape. It also takes up less horizontal space. There are several other benefits when viewing large spreadsheets etc. The heaviest components are actually placed as far as possible from the hinge. The base is also quite weighty so there is exactly zero chance of this tipping over.
