i saw this ages ago with a guy explaining all the functions and how to use it. He even did a little demo with warcraft 3! kickass.

I really got a laugh out of this. Mainly because of this link.

How's that quote go? Something like this:
History repeats itself,
And time flows like a river.

Is this what you're talking about?

My studio worked on two giant touchscreen displays for the O'Hare and JFK airports. The client (Accenture, a consulting firm) was still, to this day, the worst client I've ever had.. so the end product was about half as cool as it could've been. Ughgh.. you should've seen early storyboards, that shit was crazy cool when we started working on it.

Funny enough, we also did all of the interface designs for Minority Report (this was slightly before my time). That one got us a lot more work, but most of it was just people asking us to design them stuff "just like Minority Report."

I've seen it before but I enjoyed watching it again. Definately seems like a lot of fun.

I heard something a few months ago about them putting up some "Minority Report" type display somewhere (maybe Chicago?).

Thanks for sharing. That's pretty damned cool, though it'll probably be a good 10 years before it's priced right to sell to the average consumer.
Reminds me of the computer system in Minority Report.
