Sharetable "desktop" computer puts a PC and a second screen inside your desk

• gizmag.com

Instead of having two people grappling for control, with awkward exchanges of mouse and keyboard and adjustments of screen position, it's designed to let two people work together more elegantly. Its approach is, in essence, to mirror or extend the screen across two displays on the same desk. But there's more to it. For starters, the computer is embedded in the desk. And so is one of the screens.

Sharetable is the brainchild of Swiss design agency ReMago and Italian technology firm CloudProject Generation. Its creators call it "your first computer desktop." Unlike Ideum's multitouch smart tables, which feature huge end-to-end screens, Sharetable looks and functions like a conventional desk, only with a few suave tech-centric additions.
