Minority Report

The world is waiting to see Minority Report. And it's so close. Jeff Han's Perceptive Pixel is gaining the market share. He will speak at Ted talk in this year too. I'm longing to see his next presentation. It seems that Apple's "Pile" interface is integrated with this one. May be, new mac would be a giant display(wall size?) pc.

Method and apparatus for organizing information in a computer system

Abstract

A method and apparatus for organizing information in a computer filing system. The method and apparatus include the creation of a pile comprising a collection of documents and displaying a graphical representation of the collection of documents. The method and apparatus further include browsing the collection of documents by pointing a cursor at a particular item in the collection of documents to reveal an indicia for the particular item in the collection of documents. The filing system can automatically divide a pile (e.g. a collection of documents from an electronic mail network) into subpiles on the basis of the content of each document in the pile, and the filing system, at the users request can automatically file away documents into existing piles in the computer system on the basis of a similarity match between the content (or other internal representation) of the document and the content (or other internal representation) of existing piles in the computer system. The filing system can also create a pile from a sample document by using the internal representation of the document as the internal representation of the new pile. The computer filing system provides various interfaces in connection with piles to the user of the system to provide feedback and other information to the user, including information concerning the documents and piles in the computer's filing system.

mac osx on intel core2duo laptop

I'm currently making effort to install osx on my laptop (LG LW25 Advanced). I installed it through vmware 5.5. Installing was quite easy comparing with Windows XP. But the problem was drivers. The notebook native keyboard was usb and touchpad was ps/2. It have to be use same interfaces in order to work. As a result, I had to plug another usb keyboard. OSX was really beutiful. Now I know why people are fallen love with apple. If you want to use it, go to forum.insanelymac.com and x86osx.com.
