Microsoft SmackDown

So today I went to an event that my school was putting on. It was a geeky event sponsored by Microsoft. There were a couple of different speakers talking about a couple of new and exciting projects. First, Xbox Kinect. Which if you do not know what it is, look it up. It is a super cool motion sensor that you hook up to your 360 that allows your body to become the controller. A cool demo video is below.


We also got to look at and play with the Microsoft Surface computer. It is this really cool interactive table computer. And if you just so happen to be in Las Vegas, there is one in the Hard Rock hotel's bar that you can use to order drinks for yourself and other tables. But there is so much more it can do, which you can check out in the video below.


Also we got to see and play with the new Windows 7 phone. Which, I know a lot of you are kind of sketched out about seeing as it is a Windows phone and in the past they have done worse than awful. But it was super smooth and really good looking. And since I have two other videos already in here, lets go with another one. This is the Windows 7 phone ad, quite realistic if you ask me... silly crackberry users.
