I like the front touchscreen on this Intel tablet/ultrabook hybrid. I wonder if it would be possible to plug in a keyboard, and use the back screen while someone is using the front screen, so two users can use the same Ultrabook at the same time.

I like the comedy which Intel uses to make regular laptops look like huge suit cases in these too ads, and how people who use regular laptops are from the industrial revolution and ancient egypt.
 
It might be practical for two people using the same computer with two monitors for programs like MS Word, and Firefox which don't need audio since it be kind of weird hearing the other users music or video's sound mixed with your sound.

I'm sure tit is possible to have two accounts each signed into a different account/desktop and keyboard and mouse on the same operating system.

A lot of good laptops have Quad/4-core CPU, 8-16GB of DDR3 RAM, and a decent onboard video card like Intel 4000 Integrated graphics card, so they could probably handle two users using different screens and keyboards and mouse at once.

There are actually multiple methods to do this. And getting a secondary screen would be more comfortable and offer more freedom and privacy than the 2 users having to sit directly across each other.

There are privacy shields by 3M where people can't read over your shoulder, behind you, and other positions, and have to sit directly in front of the screen to see what is on the screen.

Maybe if the second screen was a detachable tablet with a stand which can wirelessly or with a cable to stream video to and from the laptop it could be more comfortable to use.

I know there are 7 inch portable DVD players with 2 screens which are one on each side, so people sitting on the other side of the screen can also more easily see the movie and listen to the music/audio.
