Very cool. Reminds me of Jesu...er, I mean Tom Cruise in Minority Report. I guess it's not too far off.

Get yer greasy mitts offa my monitor!

Seriously, that is going to be such a gross screen after a while. It's like whenever people would want to point out things to change (or cool stuff, whatever) on someone's page, back at Digital Chameleon, they would always be putting their greasy, cheese-poopers-stained fingers on my monitor screen to point out the bit of artwork they were talking about. I've never seen such dirty monitor screens in my life!

This is why nobody was allowed to eat at their workstations on ST:TNG - every display screen was a touchpad thing like this, and Picard was sick of all the bacon grease on tactical.

Yeah, I knew this was gonna stand out ;)

It's what cheese doodles/cheesy poofs are called on the show Sticking Around.
