Wow... just wow

All off topic discussions go here. Everything from the funny thing your cat did to your favorite tv shows. Non-programming computer questions are ok too.

I knew you could do 3D like that, but I never actually seen it. It does look very awesome and the pricetag is even more awesome.

In December last year, I suddenly got problems with the Wii remote, the cursor was jerking all over the screen, especially in the left screen area. It turned out my Christmas tree's lights also produce infrared, and suddenly the remote got about 50 instead of 2 dots to choose from :)).

Johnny Lee isn't just doing home videos on YouTube now? :-o

I spent like a whole night looking at his stuff once a few months ago (possibly January), it's really awesome.

I think he had those ideas long ago. Maybe he just needed the sensor in the Wii remote to put them into practice.

I recently enjoyed an alpha version of a pc game that used the wiimote. Pretty funky stuff :)
