Technology on the surface!

Microsoft unveils first of its kind computer called as “Surface computer” at the Wall Street Journal's 'D: All Things Digital' conference on 31st of May. Microsoft is the first major technology company to bring surface computing to the commercial market.

Microsoft Surface Computer is actually a tabletop system that enables users to interact with digital media using their fingers, resizing and interacting with photos and videos, and even "digitizing" real-life events. Certain real world objects like credit cards, cameras and even a glass of drink can be recognized by the Surface Computer to produce an on-screen version. Unlike traditional touch-screens, the Microsoft Surface can recognise more than one finger at a time, allowing small groups to gather around and use it simultaneously

Surface Computer may soon replace the mouse and keyboard and will be soon seen at the commercial areas. The first versions of the computer have already been sold to corporate clients including mobile phone companies and restaurants.

To attract home consumers Microsoft said it hopes to bring down the price from the current $5,000- $10,000 range over the next three-to-five years.
