Donno if it's really functional, but I must agree that I like the perspective "just like we do in the real world". Interesting vid if you ask me and I'm curious how close it is to next type of desktop using.

Very interesting, I really don't think we are that far away from that becoming the mainstream type of desktop. I think that will be the push for the next generation operating system.

It's cool but I think it's more of a toy than a practical application. While it most certainly wouldn't begin to compensate for a full OS unless some obvious non-icon, 2-D options were implemented, it's cool in theory.

On a side note if anyone has seen the sci-fi film Johnny Mnemonic the virtual reality, hand/glove operated GUI interaction seems more natural and easier to grasp than the pen technique.

meh, just what we need to invent, a way in which we can even make our virtual desktop a disaster zone (and there is no FEMA support for this mess :P)

I would like the glove-operated GUI for sure, but until something reallya dvanced comes along I'm gonna stick with the regular version :D
