Harrah’s installs Microsoft Surface in Vegas
Waiting for some more real-world examples of the Microsoft Surface at work? While it might be a stretch to combine “Las Vegas” and “real world” in the same sentence, we’re willing to make the leap. Harrah’s has dropped a shiny new Surface into their Rio iBar Ultra Lounge, located in their Hotel and Casino on the strip. The machine has been tricked out with a custom suite of software that promises to bring a unique experience to iBar patrons. We’re not exactly sure what that means, but after consuming 2-3 $18 Red Bull/Vodkas, we’re guessing a giant multi-touch screen is a pretty engaging proposition. If you happen to be in the Vegas area, feel free to check out the Harrah’s Surface and let us know what you think.
