Indeed it does... If I could organize my photos, home movies or music collection with one of these it would be incredible. Talk about a conversation piece for a coffee table. WOW!!!

I can just see it now. Your mom puts her glass down on your coffee table and your porn collection pops up.

This thing looks amazing! It definitely would be something to have.

About your mom finding your porno collection, well, how about if you're the one putting down the glass and finding your mom's porno collection? Nah, that's too fricky.

Looks very cool to me. I thought it was something way off in the future, but then I read it will be available in the winter of this year....wow!

This is what they mean by this winter:

Surface, which operates on Widows Vista, is priced between $5,000 and $10,000. Microsoft said the computer will be ready to ship to hotels, casinos, and TMobile stores in November.

The company plans to offer a consumer-friendly version that can appear in homes and work places within three to five years, priced as low as $1,000, said Pete Thompson, Surface project general manager.
