Microsoft Surface brings computing to the table

Self-contained unit works without mouse, keyboard. One of Microsoft Corp.'s biggest secrets looks like a normal coffee table. Until it's switched on. After years of covert development, Microsoft says it will release a computer that uses the tabletop as its high-resolution display, recognizes objects placed on the surface and skips the traditional keyboard and mouse in favor of fingers on the screen.

The company envisions a variety of uses. In one example, people place a card on the table to call up a virtual stack of digital photos from a computer server and then rotate, resize and spread them across the table using their hands. In another, diners split a tab by dragging icons of their meals to their credit cards.

Now, if Microsoft had any brains whatsoever, and if that is actually a real product, then they would use that clip as their advertising.
