Did Microsoft Create the Bumptop Video?

Posted by Matthew Berman On May - 29 - 2007

The future is here, and we can thank Microsoft for it. I know all the Apple fans will hate that statement (i’m on a 15″ Apple). It is true however, and Bill Gates is a very smart man. This is basically his goodbye to us from his dominance at Microsoft. Anyways to get to the point, the first thing I thought when I heard what Microsoft’s new “revolutionary” product dubbed Surface is, a very interesting theory popped in my head.

I blogged about what I believed to be the future of desktop GUI’s (Bumptop Desktop) in October of last year. This closely resembles the technology of Surface. On top of that this video was first released on Microsoft’s new video platform “Soapbox” (what the hell happened to that by the way?)

Did Microsoft possibly create this video to throw off the scent of their R&D? What ever happened to this company? That would be genius if true, will Apple have a similar revolutionary product on the way (besides iPhone)? Here is the video of the BumpTop Desktop:
