Microsoft Surface, Would you buy it? Options

[Kiln]

Well guys the people at Microsoft have been hard at work making something new and exciting...at least they think so. The new Microsoft surface is a table computer that you operate without a mouse or keyboard, simply by using your hands or various other objects to touch the screen. Personally I think it looks interesting but not nearly as practical as people at Microsoft believe it to be. The parody I've posted basically goes along with how I veiw the Microsoft Surface.

Here's the site with info and the trailer- http://www.microsoft.com/surface/index.html

And here's the parody- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CZrr7AZ9nCY

So what do you think?

By watching that Surface video and then watching some more videos from the same guys (Sarcastic Gamer.com) I got to watch a few Fable 2 videos from E3 which were heart-warming and quite refreshing to say the least, if compared to the previous Fable.

I especially like the co-op segment but I dread the fact that it's only possible by way of Xbox Live and not simply someone taking a seat next to you and taking a controller. That's what I am deathly worried about, since I really want to play Fable with a friend.

Anyway, sorry to be so off-topic, but I owe thanks to the one who posted that Surface video. So thanks a lot!
