Microsoft Touch Pack for Windows 7 Now Available – Windows 7 Team Blog – The Windows Blog

Posted by jpluimers on 2010/04/23

Microsoft announced that Touch Pack for Windows 7 is now Available.

It is a set of games and applications to demonstrate the multi-touch capabilities of Windows 7.
Which means it only works when you have a multi-touch monitor.

Microsoft states that the Touch Pack includes:

Microsoft Blackboard, an intricate game of physics in which you solve a puzzle by creating a fanciful machine on a blackboard.

Microsoft Garden Pond, a tranquil game that takes place in serene Japanese water gardens.

Microsoft Rebound, a game in which you use your fingertips to control Tesla spheres with an electrical field between them to catapult a metal game ball into your opponent’s goal.

Microsoft Surface Globe, a program that you can use to explore the earth as a flat 2-D map or as an immersive 3-D experience.

Microsoft Surface Collage, a program that you can use to explore and interact with your photos and arrange them as a desktop background.

Microsoft Surface Lagoon, a screen saver and interactive water simulation, complete with a meditative rock arrangement and playful, shy fish.

To download the Touch Pack for Windows 7, you need to run the GenuineCheck first (Genuine Check direct download).
But of course it is faster to get the direct download of the Touch Pack (which is close to 240 megabytes).

I’m downloading right now…
