In this clip from the 2008 Royal Institution Christmas Lectures, a volunteer plays with a multi-touch Surface computer, built into a table-top, and solves a video jigsaw puzzle.

This is why Microsoft Surface is awesome, even kids can appreciate it.

For those who complain they're better off with a desktop, this isn't a desktop replacement, rather a computer for hotel lobbies, resturants and other uses like that.

Next step is to have these on walls and with different sizes.

I'm not an IT guy, so this quite amazes me.
