that is AMAZING, really, I've never seen anything like that, but in movies (f.e. "The sixth day"). It must be very expensive, but when it becomes cheaper and more available, it will help many businessmen do anything they want without leaving the office.

Yes, that's spectacular. But, I don't think it will be useful for the society. Why? Well because people won't have to meet each other, and this will make their relations worsen...

ohhh, com on guys, don't think only about business. Imagine what possibilities it can offer to a boy who's far away from his girlfriend. Virtual love you know, that's very progressive uper

[Faw_Peter]

now that's what I don't like. Human relations must be natural, whereas business relations can be virtual. This is because it is not absolutely necessary to feel the warmth of your business partner's skin :lol:

This is revolutionary technology, It's like in fairytales, bringing the future to our lives. Good things are happening in the world due to all these Internet Business Technologies.

Holograph can also be used for replacing the teachers. Children could stay home and do whatever they want, while teachers could give lessons simulaneously to hundreds of students.
