This technology gives you the ability to control your PC without the use of your hands fingers, as it receives instruction directly from your muscle.

And in true geek fashion, how else would you demonstrate it other than using Guitar Hero as your weapon of choice.

Madobe Nanami is the latest of the OS-tan incarnation, and unlike the other OS-tans before her, she’s official, at least by Microsoft. Using Mizuki Nana as her seiyuu, she will be used to capture the otaku market of Japan.

Her official colour is the Microsoft shade of blue, but it’s not like we can’t change it right?
