Microsoft's Office of the Future

While not as inspiring as some of the higher-production quality videos from Microsoft, this demonstration of the office of the future which includes a multi-touch table and a gesture Wall system is still pretty cool and it works - at least for a demo.

This is not the first time this kind of office of the future has been shown. For example, Sun Microsystems did a something simiular (Warning: painfully long video) over a decade ago - the production is pretty dated but some of the ideas are interesting.

Better than the sun video in my opinion by Apple in 1987

Yes, you are right. That apple video is much better than the Sun one. Thanks for pointing that out.
