johnnyscience Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 Ok everyone's seen CSI Miami, I assume everyone has seen their main computer station, it actually runs Microsoft Surface, but what about that long glass pane that acts as a giant monitor?Is that technology really available?Any idea when Surface may be available at the consumer level? That is just amazing technology and the pinnacle before ESP and I cant wait to be able to have a setup utilizing it.I assume Windows 7 is going to have a large part in the whole distribution of Surface?

johnnyscience Posted October 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 If you watch, the video is what skips, their OS runs flawlessly it seems.I'm not wealthy this second but I'm working on a website that should make me that way in the near future.And computer are one of the most important things in my life, so I wouldnt mind spending a large amount on a system like that. It would make my productivity & overall abilities unreal.http://www.ted.com/talks/pattie_maes_demos...ixth_sense.htmlWatch that. Once they produce a product that is essentially the iPhone with all of those other things incoporated, Meta Data will be seamless with your life and that is only about a year away, and 2-3 years before its completely affordable for everyone.
