Videos like that are a clear sign of a company that can't innovate. Creating a video like that suggests Microsoft's "creative" people are not really part of the design processes and the company has no idea what to do with them. And those "Creative" people don't understand what makes useful advances vs. art.
None of those "products" would be that hard to prototype today, but the interfaces are just not that useful. Take that screen shot capture in the meeting. Now outlook or some location aware system could keep track of where people are and link to the meeting notes, but no they want to guess where you're eyes are and figure out where the screen is ect. It's different, but not useful.
