Visionary stuff from Microsoft

Microsoft has put up a range of future-gazing videos that look at what the computing environments of tomorrow will/could look like. They make a lot of multitouch (which I've blogged about before here, here and here). They also echo the futuristic interfaces that Adaptive Path have been exploring. And digital paper also makes an appearance.

They really are beautifully put together, telling compelling stories without any voice over or "at Microsoft, we believe..." kind of rubbish.

Now, if only they could deliver a fraction of what they are showing, then they'd really be onto something and leave the likes of Apple floundering behind.
