If you liked this I'd like to recommend going to NUI Group. its a group of people who are just like yourselves, except they make multi-touch tables/walls, and its all DIY, I made mine for around 50 bucks, and its awesome for people who love this kind of stuff, uses some of the same techniques described in this video as well

these mice were made b4 the magic mouse was even released...and these mice use a completely diffenent tech than the magic mouse does...the magic mouse only recognizes gestures whereas most of thes mice actually can track exacly what you doing

By that argument, no one has ever come up with anything new at all, ever. Apple has invented dozens of new implementations for existing hardware and software, and so has Microsoft.

[koolaidman099]

My point is that Microsoft isnt copying Apple, and thats what you and other people are making it seem like

As you can tell dumbshit there are different ways of implementing multitouch. Apple has one way, and its been vetted by the iPhone and the now ~1 yr old Macbooks. Microsoft has other ways of implementing it, but they haven't been vetted yet, because they're STILL not on the fucking market.
