Microsoft Surface Computer

The Surface is an "interactive table" that mixes the physical and virtual worlds. You can paint on it. Use it to display photos or video. Scribble notes. Play games.

It's based on finger input. You can grab data with your hands, and move it between objects, using natural gestures and hand movements. You don't need a mouse or a keyboard.

Look for Surface computers popping up everywhere. They'll be in hotels, restaurants, retailers, and public entertainment venues, looking to give their guests a rich interactive experience.

This could be the breath of life Microsoft needs, if it's going to survive the next decade. If they have their wish, there will be a Surface computer on every table, in every home, living room, hotel, bar and restaurant.

Don't be the last one to watch the demo and meet the surface. If you like technology... it's really something to talk about.
