Watch out Microsoft....Apple. (maybe)

Think that windowed desktops are too much of a clutter or a pain in the butt to sort through? A company by the name of 10/GUI is working on a new Operating System called Continuum. It is a touch screen based OS that uses a multi-point touch pad in place of the keyboard and mouse. Check them out here: (http://10gui.com/video)

Personally, I don't believe that we will be going away from windowed desktops anytime soon. I also feel like the continuum desktop is a bit clumsy, but I'd definitely love to see more or even try it out. Hopefully they release somewhere and I can try a demo! In the end, Microsoft will end up buying them out and incorporating the technology into it's collective...
