    That's kinda cool, but as a true lazy ass. I'd rather download that awesome 3D Rome add-on for Google Earth. I wonder if the flight simulator mode works with it.

    Yeah, yeah, fine, whatever. What I want to know is when is Giz gonna start using augmented reality? I mean, this technology can only enhance stories like all those NSFW Wiimote posts.

    Well if it's "interactive", then that's a whole different ballgame. It's not often I see "interactive" museum exhibits, especially ones that use "multimedia CD-ROM".

    It's a neat application but not what I'd impressive technology. It's just moving back and forth across a 3d model that brings up some information. Now if this was integrated into a tablet, iPhone, or something like that so you could roam the museum and view any display and have new information come up. That would be cool.

    @Xeno wishes there was a preview button: Like a PADD? That's too futuristic for my 21st century brain!

    Augmented reality? Like, they've found a scientific use for the Jobsian Reality Distortion Field, or that this somehow justifies the general expense of iMacs compared to the average Window PC?

    Since you started it. Everyone please use this thread to post your troll comments related to "PC's are cheaper...Mac's are better...My OS can kick your OS's butt....", and the like here. Then at least the nonsense is contained. Maybe there should be a space for this on every thread that mentions an operating system?

    @Piker247: Actually, I own macs. I love macs. I was just pre-emptively making the joke. :)


    Notice I started w/ the reality distortion field and not the machine itself.

    when will the day come when my dreams are realized and computers won't be referenced by OS/manufacturer. when will a computer simply be a computer. when will my children find safety on the internet instead of fearing the endless flame war of fanboys and trolls. when will it all stop.


    where's the video?

    i never said everyone had to buy the same machine, but when it doesn't matter what computer is being used than don't reference it. in this case we didn't need iMac in the post title, but it's there.
