A while back I read a blog entry by Jonathan Brill which pointed to a video created by Sun Microsystems of the future of surface technologies. It was pretty cheesy and I said as much on his blog. That started a conversation between Jonathan and I. Since then Jonathan and I have become friends, but I still think that video he showcased is bad (sorry buddy).A much better video was created by Microsoft which shows the future of medicine. It's well crafted, inspiring, and full of stylus, multi-touch, and even augmented reality concepts. It's about 4 minutes long but worth it. Enjoy!

Richard,
You are comparing apples to oranges.
Sure the Microsoft video looks cool...but does it show, in detail, how any of those systems would work?
No it doesn't. It's a lot of Emperor and very little clothes.
The Starfire video, on the other hand, was the culmination of a seminal research project that laid out the vision for a decade of HCI research.
