I would definitely agree with the author - this will change the way we use and relate to computers. Amazing stuff.

556385 2007-06-05 10:11:00 It was also on the news a couple of weeks ago. The cost would be about $10K in the US. winmacguy (3367)

556387 2007-06-05 11:10:00 However being a Microsoft hardware concept only device, it would be unlikely that it would successfully make it through to becoming a sale able production model, on the first attempt at least.;) winmacguy (3367)
556388 2007-06-05 11:38:00 Meh, I find Jeff Han's prototype (the new large screen one) much better and much more drool worth even if he has no plans for production. beeswax34 (63)

Yeah, they were talking of a November release date, I'd probably add a year to that at least before it's anything other than a toy for the rich. But when it does become mainstream it should be brilliant.

It will almost definitely be designed to be Vista only though :(

It would be brilliant if it retailed for about half the price and was able to be incorporated into any desktop surface.

556391 2007-06-05 12:32:00 It was on the news a few days ago, and I say, if this was cheap enough, I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

Would be so nice to play Black and White 1 & 2 on these things.
