Microsoft gets touchy-feely
My Dad always told me that one day you'd be able to send emails from your fridge. Well, now Microsoft have come up with a computer that doubles up as a coffee table. And very impressive it is, too.

Microsoft's Surface doesn't come cheap - but it does respond to your touch, and recognise wireless devices that are sitting on it. It even has the potential to recognise your credit card, so you can buy things by simply dragging them onto it.

After watching the videos on the site, I was trying to work out what it reminded me of. Thanks to TechnologyExpert for making me realise that it's just like something out of Minority Report.

I have one question, though: does it tell you off if you don't put your drink on a coaster?
