oh please, enough of the microsoft vs apple. its so cliche now. aren't we, as consumers, supposed to be happy that there exists increasing competition in the computer software/hardware industries? all we do is sit back, relax, enjoy the bloodshed, and get what we like best, which keeps changing because the computer market, with its fierce competition, advances at an unbelievable speed.
@psykick000 you do realize that its this insane customer vs customer rivalry that creates the initiative for market competition, right? They are irrevocably intertwined. Asking for one without expecting the other is ludicrous.
I dun think this will be for consumers unless you have 15K to spare. It is more of a business tool. Just like maybe, you like the POS cash register a lot, you can get it for consumers, just that it is gonna cost you as compared to buying a normal computer.
I could imagine this working in public places well but as you know more and more people are doing things from home, Like shoping on ebay or running a buisiness from home, Its taking over cable and phone cause of innovations. So exchanging buisness information? Maybe somthing a little bit more easy like a cell phone app like the apple where you can wave your phone over sombody else for contact info would be a lot better and later you can exchange pics, and messaging later! I wouldn't use it.
that tight now they have to have something like that for humans put your hand down and it reads your fingers and knows who r u cuz everyone has difference kinds of finger prints
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
sure they will be working on it now... lol that's Apple for ya, always a step behind.. MS has an idea, Apple thinks it's cool, copies it, then does a WAY better job marketing it so they get the credit.
cool tech... wonder if it will ever make it into homes and be a success.. i like the direction i see microsoft goin in.. with office being all snazy now, windows 7 being better than vista, and new stuff like surface.. good job microsoft, keep copying apple, it seems to be doing u well.. ;P
Yeah they did say It would be coming. I saw an example somewhere of one designed for an Aston Martin dealership. It let you take a multi touch "3D" fly through the car. Pretty cool gadget and you're right it is going to be a while until this kind of device makes its way into our front rooms.
It's out, but commercial pricing and not retail pricing. It's in commercial settings like at Harrah's in Atlantic City, the Rio in Las Vegas, Sheraton's, Barclays, etc.
If they put all that on a PC under $1500 I may think about getting one for myself. But for a big ass table that cost as much as an economy car I think I'll pass......
Yes, your right. You can get an HP TouchSmart IQ526 PC for $1200 with a free upgrade to Windows 7 on October 22th..... still much cheaper than this big ass touch screen coffee table LOL
Anyone know of a desktop that has the water effect like the surface has? Something like an interactive water desktop? So when you move the mouse it makes ripples on the screen.
AAAAAARRRRGH IM SOOO PISSED OFF RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!! you cant buy it for personal use and its fucking insanely expensive i dont care if this thing could recreate god its WAY TOO fucking expensive
yep but they are major expensive its not fair why does the revolutionary designs always stay away from the mainstream use for sooo long and then when it gets here have such a huge prive tag
because certain companies have lost touch with customers and there feelings. Like for example, the project from Microsoft were you wont need controllers. It sounds cool but how efficient will it be. It could cost way to much for it to be available to the consumer. And plus how accurate will it be for voice and controllers?
i know that technology has its flops but it paves the way for technology to improve on the design but i hate the fact we are simply numbers on a board to them.they think they know whats good for us and we are simple minded fools that just have money to them. come on why cant the consumer just win for once is that too much to ask for
exactly. If companies, not just microsoft, put out quality affordable products we will buy them. And sometimes cutting the price can earn you profit. Also the consumer has been winning for years. Its called consumers union/ consumer reports. People check with them for a variety of things to see if it is worth for the public to buy it.
no its that the price is faaaaar to expensive. i understand items are normally pricey until it reaches mainstream but this is mainstream but still is far too pricey. ssds are pricey but are soon to drop in price because of mass production but Microsoft surface is too expensive even when mainstreamed
Microsoft Surface isn't mainstream yet. It's still a commercial product and positioned for multi-user computing in public spaces. Remember when plasma TVs were more than $10,000 and it was mostly sports bars that had them? It took a while for the prices to come down from those early days to where more people were buying them. We hope the curve to mainstream will be quick for Microsoft Surface.
We are working on to get you a lower priced options. The Windows and Surface teams have been collaborating in Windows 7. The first wave will be available this fall with Windows 7 Touch. This will come with lower priced options than the Microsoft Surface hardware, with Windows 7 laptops and IR embedded screens.
Future versions of Microsoft Surface with its vision technology will go down in price as well. We're working hard to bring it to a consumer availability and price point.
That Microsoft Surface is amazing, I hope it becomes reality in the mass market. It will redefine how people use their computers. I sooooooooo want one.
Great stuff. So touch interfaces are now mainstream - I wonder how many years it's gonna take to figure out how to manipulate the objects in 3D space minus the screen (Minority Report, essentially)?
Yep, cool, but like you say a primitive stage. Are there any signs of people being able to marry that to actual object manipulation, some kind of touch interface?
It seems they figured out holograms a while ago, and in the other direction, things like Microsoft Surface, Wii, Project Natal have conquered motion control. It's that seamless bridging of the two that we're all hoping for to be brought to the masses.
Seeing more companies expriementing with new ways if interacting with UI moving so fast, those holograms in Iron Man might be closer to reality than we thought.
