When are dual screen laptops going to be a thing?

They originally were brought around in 2009, but I don't really see these on the market?

wtF? I want two screens for my laptop. 🙁

People want thin and light, not performance and usability.

You can get external portable monitors that are USB powered though.

They are pricey and are poorly reviewed. Not to mention less convenient. 🙁

Maybe I will try one though.

Its simple, there is no profitable market for a large, heavy, desk space consuming, low battery life laptop.
When screens have advanced enough to where they are as thin as a heavy paper stock and flexible like that, then we might see dual screen laptops possible that would not be huge and cumbersome.
