That sounds all well and good… except for the three years part. And the Windows part (unless Buxton is expecting Microsoft to make some pretty radical changes to the version of Windows running on these things. Microsoft execs have been thinking about ways to make the Surface multi-touch tabletop more affordable and portable for at least two years. (Remember “Oahu,” anyone?) So far, however, the Surface remains a “big ass table,” as it was dubbed in a spoof video a while back.
