Cool video: iPhone and Microsoft Surface mashup

The Microsoft-Apple battle has been raging for ages, and when the iPhone and Microsoft Surface were announced, trolls squirmed with excitement at the prospect of yet another completely different pair of products to compare and bash. So if you're like me, you may find the video below a breath of fresh air. Stimulant, the developer of the sample application, describes it by saying:
XRay is a mashup of Microsoft Surface and the iPhone. Stimulant created a Surface application that reveals photographs, but by laying an iPhone on Surface, more layers of imagery are revealed, synced in real time with the upper image layers shown on Surface. The only limit to how many iPhones can be used at once is, well, how many iPhones you have handy.​

i love my iPhone and would not trust even to keep my iPhone on any MS product.
I use my Macintosh laptop to connect it. But when i tried connecting it thru windows 7, it has issues in syncing videos and outlook msgs sometimes. So MS and Apple products can never be clubbed.

If I ever had enough cash to waste to buy a Mac, I'd definitely format it and put Windows 7 on it.

Hmm... If I had a "Surface" ... testing an iPhone on it would be just one of many things to try. XD

Agreed. Since Apple started to use Intel processors, MAC computers became just another preassembled PC but with MAC OS installed.

Amazing example. I love it. The only thing it is missing is the red bike's price tag on the motorcycle and the motorcycles price tag on the bike. After all, Apple charges 4x more than Microsoft for their computers. If you don't buy a dell.
