No, I'm not going all "New Age" on you, this time I'm looking at how computers are going to get a 3rd dimension and how this will change the way we interact with them. The previous parts of this series have been based on extrapolations or previous history. This time I'm looking further forward, when technologies currently in long term development become available and open up a whole new realm of possibilities.

I have yet to see a competlling application for 3D interfaces. Do not confuse this with 3D data - this is useful, but flipping around my application window still seems pointless and certainly the Sun Looking Glass app seemed contrived.
