Much has been written and said about Microsoft’s new surface computing technology.
It is the WOW technology of the year. Sooner than many of us thought possible, this technology will first become a defining feature in luxury homes, and as adoption increases and prices drop, it will likely appear as a builder option in many tract subdivisions.
Imagine interactive coffee tables that wirelessly download photos from your digital camera. Or how about kitchen counters that come to life with not only recipes and schedules–but may also allow you to order groceries, pizzas or Chinese carry-out and pay for it all by laying your credit card on the counter.
Expect to see early adoption of this technology not in luxury homes, but in bars and restaurants.
The possibilities will stagger the imagination.
This high technology comes with a high price too as they become salient features of luxury homes. “Smart luxury homes” will not come cheap for sure.

We’ll likely see surface computing in luxury homes where owners are not concerned about cost. The first homes to benefit from this whiz bang technology would likely be those of Bill and Melinda Gates and other leaders at Microsoft.
Just a guess!
