Microsoft Does Something Else Interesting

Well, if you think touch sensitive tables are interesting, that is. Really, I kinda do. Although, Surface, as its called, seems to work much like the screen of the iPhone so I wonder where they got the idea? Maybe it was the movie Minority Report that inspired them? Sure, that could be it. Whatever it was that made them think of it, the technology is pretty cool so check it out.

    Yeah, if you go to the MSFT campus they have a demo lab (you have a bunch of crap you have to sign as well as leave all electronic devices at the door in order to get it) where various are technologies are implemented in a “model home/office” – they’ve had these screens up for a couple years. Pretty nifty.
