So microsoft has apparently been working on a new product for the past 6 years.
Its this touch screen table thing, well hows that special, the touch screen can actually interact with objects, such as payment cards, but also your glass of wine.
or your childrens photos, you can move the objects around in the table like you would with actual objects lying on the table.
