Duos can handle this... Think dock. :-) Actually, you can boot them closed,
but you cannot close them and keep them awake. The PB 1400, stock, has no
video output, and is quite limited. It doesn't like closing awake, nor
booting. I don't know about the Pismo, not having tried booting it closed,
but it also doesn't close without going to sleep... Of course, I would be
happy to stand corrected on all this... :-)
