A Cambridge guy working for Microsoft Research had
the incredible idea to implement Microsoft's

Steve's solution is remarkably simple yet effective. With an off-the-shelf laptop, he retrofitted some infrared sensors on the back and together with the magic of software, you have multi-touch! Check out the following video clip (excerpt from MSR Cambridge video) to see his demonstration. It has all the dragging and pinching demos you'd expect to see in every multi-touch display, so don'dt expect to be blown away.

Caution: Your notebook might get jealous and crash itself on purpose.
