stupidity at its best! who will ever need a sphere with images and having to use it with both arms all day? these multitouch large vertical screens are stupid because no one will ever stay hanging his/her arms to control the thing if he/she can control a mouse. Even the tablet never won the mouse for the same reason. All absolute position large devices will never rule. The opposite is true, this is why iPhone rules, because it is an absolute position small device.

I suppose some geeks in a basement in Redmond mind find this kind of “Kewl”. I think the novelty would wear off REALLY fast, because, unless you are working on a small space, the ergonomics would suck.

Microsoft’s vision of your next computer (NOT!) can also be used as a beach ball.
