Windows 7 Multi Touch Demo
Here is a nice demonstration of the built-in multi touch capabilities we can expect in Windows 7. You’ll notice that much of it stems from the Microsoft Surface platform.

The Why of Multitouch
If you are in doubt whether you should think of multitouch technology as Very Exciting, a Major User Interface improvement, or even a Much Faster Way To Operate Your Computer, read on.
