that’s a pretty tall order from a company who can barely develop their own Operating System.

I still see no hover boards or flying cars in that video. Who gives a FUCK about digital paper.

^Now they have micro sd cards that are smaller then my pinky fingernail and can hold 32GB of data.....and tiny devices like ipod nanos have full video capability.

I think almost all the stuff in the video is feasible for 2019. Think back 10 years and compare. I remember when a 16MB flash drive was huge, and smallest device that could play video was about the size of a laptop.

I have a Suzuki Swift and all my own organs. It doesn't get much more futurific than that.

Flying cars do exist but they are in no way practical and have a very small range.

on flying cars; the thing about those kind of predictions is that they require massive engineering leaps to do extraordinary things. These are just applications of slightly more advanced forms of technology we already have.
Like concept cars I'm sure this will never actually look this way, but I'll go out on a limb and say it'll be damn close, and I can't fucking wait.
- Exactly my feelings on that video - I could care less that it's by Microsoft, it's the fact that the technologies are realistic.Wolfboy

this kind of things scares the crap out of me, it would induce some sort of information overload where I would end up flaling my arms infront of me saying get the shit to stop just stop it all :'( then I would throw myself into some water or something, but then I would hit glas becasue the water would be soem sort of rediculous CG thing that no-one told me about!!!. he he

So, interfaces can't look cool until they've invented transparent displays. Dang. Colour correction on those will be a killer.

i think that only a worldwide flood could get rid of all these poorly designed devices and the designers who designed them. but i'm pessimistic about the whole future technology thing.
