Ok so iWhatever isn't Microsoft but it's a huge Mac but touch screen from Micrsoft! I could care less...hence it's Microsoft...but still it's worth looking at. Gives you something to talk about right? haha. It's pretty kool though. I mean it's really innovative with what they did with it and it sure helps for some families...that are rich that is. $5000-10000! Haha. Up to you though haha. Bars and Restaurants in November of....this year or next year. Not sure of what the date is on that video but yea.

Yup. I highly doubt that it will have any market penetration for a very long while though.

It's common to dish out the hits on Microsoft for copying Mac, but this is completely different. SURE it has multi-touch like capabilities, but in this case the gestures can be mutually exclusive. The sensors in this case are light-years ahead of anything in a mac. This is more like Microsoft stealing ideas from Mac, putting them in a large, expensive package, but this time actually trying to IMPROVE on the ideas.
