Computers without keyboard/mouse by MicroWay on 06-25-2007 at 11:28 PM
Hello guys,
Don't know if you saw it, but I recieved an e-mail with a video showing computer technology, and you don't need to use mouse...

Old. Not just because Microsoft announced it a while ago, but because experiments like this have existed for many years.
BTW: PDA, Tablets, iPhones, etc, etc.

No keyboard is obviously possible with the on-screen keyboard. 
Mice can be replaced by touchscreen.
The camera and the VISA card were shocking though. Wish I could have 1.

For shops/restaurants and such i can see why they would want it... But for in homes it just looks like waste of money.
- It's huge for today's standards
- Expensive
- Yay, more RSI (Try sitting looking down at a table for hours)
- Doesn't do nearly as much as a normal PC
- Things like transferring photos wireless... WTF which camera has WiFI build in? And if you do manage to get a camere with WiFi...
-- Battery power (so you probably need to go to your cam settings first and turn on wireless
-- Security (so enter the passkey on your big ass table before you can send shit to it 
)

Sorry for being an old thread.... Here the info came late...
Anyway, would be cool to have one... 
I just imagine using programs like fotoshop with that (if possible)... Or use other full screen programs....

I'm pretty sure I saw this somewhere else ages ago Microsoft
Maybe M$ was working on this instead of adding all those advanced features and the new file system that was promised to Vista

My mate's had something similar to this since before the end of the year.
And Cookie, that video rocks.
