Microsoft "Microsoft has unveiled a new touch-sensitive coffee table-shaped computer called 'Surface'. Designed to do away with the need for a traditional mouse and keyboard, users can instead use their fingers to operate the computer. Also designed to interact with mobile phones placed on the surface, Microsoft says it will initially sell the unit to corporate customers. These will include hotels, casinos, phone stores and restaurants." Instant update: More details and a video.

Wake up, there hasn't been a blue screen of death for ages now. I think this new technology is great, and more and more people will have access to it, and it's going to be everywhere. But I'm not sure I'll want to leave my current computer to use a table, eh eh...I don't know what version of Windows it's gonna run either (Vista or an embedded version).
