Microsoft Surface is the newest Multitouch device to hit the market and it has a few things that might surprise you.

While most machines released that have a number of innovative features on them tend to not have much else in the packaging, the Microsoft Surface computer is quite a bit different. While it does have the Multitouch interface that allows you to interact directly with the computer as if it were a response surface (hence the name Microsoft Surface), at the same time it is also one of the most powerful machines ever built.

Whether you are looking to find directions to a specific place, root through your complicated music collection in order to find specific songs or even get quotes regarding a specific technological device right away just by playing it on the surface interface, the power of the Microsoft Surface is set to impress time and time again. It not only has the processing power to back up features like the Multitouch interface, but it also has the connectivity abilities to the different servers and databases of the world that will allow you to have a wealth of information at your fingertips (and with the Multitouch interface, that expression is quite literal).

The idea of being able to get information about whatever you want whenever you want just by touching the screen a few times is one that is extremely attractive to a lot of users and this is why the interest around the Microsoft Surface has been building up very rapidly as people continue to hear about this innovative new product.
