BumpTop, a new way to think your desktop

While browsing YouTube website, I accidentally found this video, presenting the prototype of a new 3D desktop manager called BumpTop.

The most interesting feature of BumpTop is the usage of real world physics to rule the movement of the icons; like paper sheets or CD-DVD boxes, you can move or even throw them around, just like you would do on your desk. The usefulness of this approach? None, IMO. It’s just eye-candy, a waste of useful resources and CPU power.

A preview of the video follows:
