I agree with fleurya. Misses the point. Still funny.

I'm intrigued, what point did it miss? Or rather, what point was it intending to hit? I thought it was funny just because it was.

I think the point of Surface is to serve as an interactive kiosk and not necessarily a very expensive home computer. While the usefulness of Surface is dubious, it's definitely a futuristic view of things to come - and even if the current implementation is somewhat useless to the average Joe, it's nice to see some form of innovation come from Microsoft.

It was good.....I kept expecting it to turn into a space invaders table like I used to play on at the pub.

And remember, its not a computer, its a big table....LOLOL

that video was hilarious, thanks.
i can see the surface being useful in stores, like where they are starting to put them.. but actually as a home computer?

How is this video hilarious? I think that it's a great piece of technology that Microsoft is in the process of creating. This video isn't funny, rather it tried to be funny... there's a difference.

Wow... have you ever heard of a sense of humor? I'm sorry you viewed the video as an attack against Microsoft's "piece of technology" and got your panties in a bunch but it was meant to be a PARODY. I think Microsoft Surface is pretty **** cool too but that doesn't mean this video can't be funny at the same time... Agreed?

I didn't see it as an attack. I thought it was stupid, wasn't funny at all. I don't see what's so funny about it - maybe you can shed some light on me. And, by the way, I do have a sense of humor.
