Can't wait for those embarrassing photos after the surgery.

but that is something you think could happen.. what i see as a fact is a doctor very happy seeing a way to do his work more easy and more effective, WHO created the tech is irrelevant, you are not seeing the good side of this all for your hate to ms.. if this works for a doctor, GREAT! if not, somebody will create the correct tool, but the important thing is how this could help for people.. and thats what your are not looking

Right..haters actually cant help other people, thats what they are good at to hate and say something wrong on things that can help other people..at least some people are trying to use this technology to help others,..haters will always post something worthless on the Internet,..

Its meant to be more than just a motion gaming device.

Hm. So, people can hack the kinect to help with surgeries... but a game development team can't make one single good game for it? I have to admit, using the kinect for stuff like this is absolutely remarkable.

Gotta love the combination of technology here: Kinect by Microsoft, laptop by Apple, and operating system by Ubuntu.

well, i know who created what, and one thing for sure, it doesnt matter who creates what, it matters whos able to sell it.

MS did it, so no offence, after so many months i think i shud change my comment and say MS did good marketing...

And oh BTW, i enjoyed making u angry :D

dafuq you talking about? Sony's crapware "EyeToy" is a completely different technology than Kinect. Go spread your hate somewhere else, I think some kind of Apple or Linux message boards would suit you well.
