Hitachi Multi-touch demo
« on: January 17, 2008, 10:07:48 AM »
Hitachi has their own version of the Surface device from Microsoft.  The really cool part of the product demo was that they were showing a 50 inch display using a projector that sat 8 inches from the surface, and there was NO DISTORTION!

Book: Very specific. It is, however, somewhat fuzzy around the area of kneecaps.

No begging, it's just to humiliating to see you that way.  Ask politely.  Then we will see about getting you this monitor. IF Snauz says that you can move it into the apartment.  But then it is likely that he will take it over, soooo maybe not.

Thank you, thank you all, this ranting raving moment brought to you by Red Bull, boredom, and insanity.  They go together, they just do.  Well, them and insomnia.  But that's a whole other bucket of chicken.  :D
