As I have seen the title, I started hoping they had published some of windows source code so that people can finally start fixing it. Gah..

Well, Microsoft has announced it's latest little secret, Microsoft surface. http://www.microsoft.com/surface/ There are 3 things I have to say about it. 1. Ooh, pretty 2. Ugh, Gimmick 3. Why would I want to revert BACK to these primitive methods? Sure, some of this would be usefull (for instance the way they pay for the meal etc) but I don't really think this will catch on. Well, we'll see won't we. |

I think it's an excellent idea. |

I checked it out fast at work. It's basically a pc that looks like a coffee table with a touch sensitive screen. That's kinda cool, imo...I always wanted a computer built into a desk and shit...like Tron. Anyway, it'll flop. There's no need for it and no real desire for it. If it gets hyped right it'll end up like the Segway. 
Still, I encourage innovative thinking. I'm glad MS had the balls to put money into a project like that. |

I reckon it'll have more use/luck outside the home at first. |

See, to me the idea of the photo's from your phone/cam just seems like we're going backwards - but I guess that's good for people who don't know how to use a computer. Unfortunatley, It's going to cost a small fortune so, it's gonna flop. |

I think it would be neat as a combination home theatre pc, home network server, etc. Maybe it'll be a project for me to build one soon. :p I wonder how expensive touch screen stuff is now. |
