All,



Take a look at this advanced computing technology..

Could this be the direction that the Apple is going? I saw a Mac-Like dock menu somewhere during the middle of this clip..

    Extremely cool. Here's the link to the NYU page where they're doing this researh.



    When I saw this I thought, "Wouldn't it be cool if a Mac could use multiple input devices/mice?" For example, I have a trackball and a graphics tablet. It'd be nice if the graphics tablet could be used just for drawing, and the trackball used to interact with the menus, etc. And when you start talking about 30" screens, it might be useful to have one mouse dedicated to interacting with the menubar and another for using down in the workspace. Games let you do this when multiple people are playing using multiple controllers, but you don't see it at the OS & application level.
