He waves his hands some more, and the machine does computer-like stuff. Well, take a gander at this. Can Gort be far behind?! _________________________ MACTECH ubi dolor ibi digitus

carp Dino's are Babe magnets Registered: 04/19/02 Posts: 27021 Loc: Hawaii	Seems to me that "MS" had this 25,000 touch table idea "basic large iPhone" - Then CNN took that away with their Magic Wall and Magic Table , witched worked some times but they are using PCs so they are forgiven . Bum luck sorta thing , an end run back to MS. Surprised that Apple is behind the power curve Edited by carp (12/05/08 10:38 PM) _________________________

DLC I invented modding! Registered: 11/04/02 Posts: 16264 Loc: Lindale, TX (Tyler)	Speaking of Klaatu, has anyone seen the new Day the Earth Stood Still? The AJC said it's like the title !! ... aka doesn't "move" !! But many times the critics are wrong. _________________________ David (OFI)

padmavyuha Trans Tomboy™ Registered: 09/03/03 Posts: 4874 Loc: Dawlish, Deepest Darkest Devon	Mmm... the review I saw started with 'If you liked The War of the Worlds, you'll love this...' and I gave up at that point The original is so atmospheric; it sounds as though this time round, they've made do with special effects instead. I might go and see it though - I'll let you know if I do. Meanwhile... Edited by padmavyuha (12/12/08 12:53 PM) _________________________ If it's brokenless, don't suffix it...
