I don't really get those multitouch demos (they are basically all the same): to tell you the truth, I CANNOT possibly imagine myself in the situation where I would open up a folder with my pictures nicely organized and aligned and start making a mess - because that's what those demos are about, randomly moving and zooming the pictures so that they cover the rest (plus, the zoom is limited to the actual window, not the entire desktop). I can have that kind of mess on my desk and I hate it. Why would I want to port it to the PC as well? I just fail to understand why anyone would find that particularily useful. I know it's just a demo of the technology, but quite a bad use case in my opinion. My oh my, was that boring or what.

The biggest problem for a full multi touch OS are our hands. And the shown multi touch WPF apps will also run on XP. So I'm also not impressed. Agreed.

The same conference where last year Bill Gates and Steve Jobs made a historical appearance together on-stage interviewed by Walt and Kara. Whilst my chirp-to-English translation is a little flaky, it makes sense because the D Conference has been used in the past for Microsoft to make rather grand announcements such as the introduction of the Surface computer. This time round, both Bill Gates and Steve Ballmer will appear together at the keynote so it’s a perfect opportunity to talk about the future of the company. In addition to just discussing their ideas and vision, it’s rumored the event will actually involve a demonstration of Windows 7 in some fashion. Whether or not we’ll actually see a live build of Windows 7 or purely a technology demo of a specific feature remains a mystery, but it’s sure exciting. News Source: i started something [...]

I guess the excitement and nostalgia for Touch technology has been taken away by Surface. But, I just don't see how this will replace my proven experience with the mouse, keyboard and or laptop touch pad. How will this increase a users productivity, ad value and agility to my work flow. All I'm seeing here is a frenzied response to the iPhone and possible me first before Apple comes to market with something more revolutionary and in fact Apple will always come with something better. If this is the direction Microsoft is taking I see it as another small niche like the Tablet is right now. Not impressed.
