Bleeding Edge TV 271: Hands-on with the new HP TouchSmart PC

At HP‘s Connecting Your World event in Berlin, Germany, we talked with John Cook, VP of marketing for HP’s Consumer PC group. He gave us a hands-on first look at the beautiful new HP TouchSmart PC.
One thing we really liked about the new TouchSmart is its completely redone interface. The software looks clean, polished, useful, and eminently easy to use. It would be great, however, if the TouchSmart made more use of multi-touch. Cook demonstrates a pinch gesture in the software but that’s pretty much it. We’re keeping our eyes peeled for more multi-touch functionality in upcoming software updates and releases.

Is that a Dock I see, Hmmm Don’t Mac OS10 has that already or the cover flow MacOS 10 had that to, everybody is copying Apple.
Gotta use what works. Apple definitely doesn’t have a touch PC though. The credit for the big stuff on the TouchSmart goes to HP.
I personally don’t care who’s done what first. I care about who do it in a great way, in combination with other great stuff. I also hate obnoxious Apple users. You know there’s a whole group of people who think Apple stuff is pretty nice and usable, but don’t buy it because they don’t want to be associated with that stinking fanboy culture?
