Microsoft Home: Domestic digital bliss?
InfoWorld | at | by Mike
Tucked down a tree-lined lane in London's swanky Notting Hill lies what appears to be Microsoft's version of a domestic dream: a family home where no one has to talk to each other -- really.
"Mom" wakes up and makes a bee-line to the built-in Activemirror (the dual mirror/computer that allows Mom to see both her image and a transparent screen). While she is busy primping, news headlines scroll across the mirror. She can also listen to music and check appointments by voice command.
