While it may not be Microsoft's multitouch Surface computer, researchers from Pompeu Fabra University have built the Reactable multitouch table. The researchers have lately been stepping it up by forming their own company, Reactable Systems, and are pushing to get the table into production. The Reactable multitouch table has a more simplistic design and keeps every object as a "puck" so that it is much easier to understand and locate where everything is. When the pucks get closer to each other they can interact with each other, possibly to make music because they are focusing on its "potential as a musical instrument." The multitouch table has no price or availability just yet, but you can watch the video below for a quick demo.
