The problem I see is that such a GUI would allow me to have the same mess I use to have on my desktop inside my computer :s ...

But come on, it's really cool!

This is a great idea! Of course you'll still be able to have folders and sub folders. Being able to manipulate files, folders and "windows" like the Google window they use in the demo, this is probably the greatest idea in OS's since GUI. It's genuine 3D virtual space... not so much a desktop as a whole office.

That is wicked-cool but how practical is that? I like having folders and subfolders for all my files.

I don't see why this couldn't be done with a mouse and keyboard. Shortcuts and several mouse buttons would make the regularly used options nicely available for the user. You could also have personal keysets stored on an USB stick which you could just insert into a machine that uses this technique and then use it as you would your own.

Also, with networking connections becoming more and more compatible you could have net spaces in "office use". While ignoring the limitless possibility for abuse and practical jokes, this could be an enormous asset to any midsize corporation that has people with several levels of computer know-how (and what midsize corporation doesn't? ;)

All in all, it's an excellent innovation and I'm actually surprised no one's built a working prototype of it before. It looks a bit heavy to have on top of an existing Windows OS, but a *nux/Mac system should be able to handle it.

Good use for one of those new physics cards. I?d use a desktop like that! If for no other reason then it?d be fun at first. I?m sure there is more to come later if they get funding.

That's got to be one of the coolest things I have seen in a very long time.
