Downloading & Trying Windows 7 Beta Public

[Asher]

Why are you doing 3D modelling on a display only? Is there no space for a keyboard at your desk?

[FrostyBoy]

I am just providing a visual example for you.

Try this one, imagine playing WoW, every single power, every single movement, everything is at your fingertips. Currently it is not, you have to navigate using the mouse, use the other hand to press keys, sometimes you have to look at your keyboard to make sure you're pressing the right number, because you don't want to get yourself killed pressing the wrong spell.

It's like I said, removing the need to switch between devices increases speed, which has many advantages, depending on what you're doing. I just provided two examples without even trying.

I can understand the use of touch-screens more than you know. I've worked on several products that use multi-touch, thank you.

I'm saying they will not replace the physical keyboard with a virtual one for most devices. There's no point.

[FrostyBoy]

I understand why you're gay. Half your body make up must be feminine, you are really sensitive.

I never denied that you didn't know what you were talking about. (Kind of the reason I am discussing this with you).

In conclusion, I disagree with you, I believe it will become the norm, I believe we will even be able to type entirely with 1 hand, using a "scatter" box touch screen; and it will be unbe-****ing-lievable.

I'm just impatient.

The problem is you're all over the place. I see tremendous value in touchscreen interfaces. I do not see tremendous value in completely replacing the physical keyboard as a data entry device.

For programmers, typists, generally I do not see much of an advantage (but I still think they will end up using it). For everything else, I do see an advantage, a great one.

I like how you just casually dismiss people who need to type data into a computer...

[FrostyBoy]

It was good wasn't it.

[Asher]

It was good for demonstrating your thought process, or lack thereof.

[FrostyBoy]

You need a girlfriend.

[Asher]

I've got a partner of over 5.5 years who cooks and cleans for me, and doesn't ever get a period. I win here.

[FrostyBoy]

Mine has boobs.

[Asher]

You say that like it's a good thing. Why don't you brag about your own boobs while you're at it if you like them so much?

[FrostyBoy]

Poor Asher, doesn't know what he's missing out on.

Did we really need this personal insult?
