<p>This idea came to me on a train journey home. As multi-touch is made more and more accessible, it would only make sense to have a desktop counter-part to the tablet &#8216;TouchBook&#8217; I have previously designed. Originally I was going to go for a similar design to the new cinema displays or the iMac when I realized how much strain on your arms it would eventually cause pointing upwards at a screen. Of course on the opposite end, having a screen flat on a desk would also cause neck problems, so I came up with a more ergonomic design. This &#8216;Mac Touch&#8217; is the first design I came up with, a screen at a 45 degree angle, with multi-touch input. At this angle, adding a keyboard and mouse would also be possible if needed for other use, but for standard multi-touch applications this design seemed most sensible and stylish.</p>
<p>Let me know what you think, comment below!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This was a brief design I threw together to try and combat the idea of the new 4G iPod Nano&#8217;s prior to their release. I wanted a smaller multi-touch interface, similar to the iPod touch but on a smaller scale. This would allow room for higher quality video on a smaller device and also a much greater GUI. As smart as the 4G Nano&#8217;s are, I dont think its anything revolutionary; Apple needs to step up the technology!</p>
