lol, that reminds me of a parody I saw for the wii.

Regardless of the slams, it would be pretty cool to have. You know, if someone got me one for christmas or something.

I'm hoping the future will be a bit more creative and interesting than a horizontal touchscreen with a computer underneath :lol: :roll:

I thought of the maps part of the thing this morning. I laughed out loud. Again. It was awesome.

instead of playing with your kids, you could instead look at video's of them playing with themselves .. you'll smile because you know you only paid 10.000 dollars to do it
:)

@Kieran: what's FB?

The parody is dead on. Who's going to stick a computer in a big ass table? I like my table. It's wood. I put my feet on it. Sometime I spill coffee on it. A few times my nephew has even taken offence with it and stabbed it to death with a plastic lightsabre. That's what a good table is all about - you get to inflict bad things on it and it won't respond with a Blue Screen Of Death. It just receives a new dent and continues in service as reliable as ever!

Who cares if it's a good computer! Is it a good table?!
