Here’s what people are saying about BumpTop

 

 


"I was very impressed by BumpTop... it could revolutionize the way we interact with our desktop environments in a similar fashion to the way that Apple has advanced the industry with its innovative product offerings. BumpTop allows users to leverage a lifetime's worth of intuition and experience with the real world to interacting with the simulated world behind the screen. Its gesture-based user interface offers an engaging, easy to learn user experience that is simple, fun and practical."

Andy Hertzfeld - Key member of original Apple Macintosh team, Founder, Radius, Eazel. Presently at Google. BumpTop Angel Investor.


“BumpTop is bringing a new level of fun and interactivity to desktop PCs. Harnessing the capabilities of a graphics processor, BumpTop creates a 3D representation of your own desk, and this will dramatically change the way people interact with their files, photos, videos and more.”

Jeff Herbst, vice president of business development of NVIDIA.


“I've never been much of a desktop user. I generally keep my desktop pretty clean and access programs through the menu. But I've noticed a gradual drift since using BumpTop - the clean visual organisation of icons seems to make me make use more of them.”

Gregor McEwan, Blog Review



“BumpTop offers me some unique organizing features that helps me access my files quicker. I really like it reminds me what projects I'm working on and which one take prioity and which one don't. Once I'm done with a project I remove it from my desktop. My hard drive acts a filing cabinet now. If I need to get back to a project I take it out of my filing cabinet and put it on my desk. All of the files are there and can be accessed very quickly.”

"I find myself using Bumptop more than my crowded old desktop since I installed it. It has an awesome set of organization tools (piles, resize, pin to wall). I got my desktop properly organized in a matter of seconds and can actually find things faster now. Browsing piles is incredibly intuitive and playful, and I love that there are multiple ways to open them.

1) "I've tried every 3-D desktop implementation to date, and the only one that passes all my tests (and remains in use, daily), is my BumpTop."

2) "With BumpTop, my desktop is now a virtual extension of the same method of organization I use in real life on my desk. In real life, I make piles of paper documents & notes that are related to a particular client or project -- then I stack or organize those piles on my work desk. With BumpTop, I can now extend the exact same methodology on my desktop.. and it feels completely natural. "

3) "Somewhere along the way Microsoft stopped innovating with the concept and /potential /of the desktop. Regardless of all the new widgets in Vista and shiny gloss behind your windows, we're still stuck with equally-sized and auto-grid-arranged flat icons on a flat background. With all the installers, and web browsers in the world treating the desktop as a common dumping ground, [Microsoft] responded by adding a feature to Clean up/ (move/delete) the icons. Finally. BumpTop picked up the ball and redefined the context of 'Desktop' forever. With BumpTop, a new world of intuitive physical actions and functionality emerges -- extending my real desk to my Desktop... and I never want to go back."

“I love your software. It looks slick, increases my organization, and gives me the edge when I get into a My-PC-versus-your-macbook contest with my friends! You guys rock. Another thing I like is how you read every suggestion and bug report. I've had a few of my personal qualms (such as the double-click wall dropping) fixed in the very next release of Bumptop, as well as personal feedback to try and solve some not even very pressing glitches. Keep up the good work! Peace out.”

"BumpTop is the greatest addition to my computer ever!"

Keith A.

 

“This is new, different and engaging. It's like seeing TV in color for the first time. There is no need to go back to plain old Black & White. Why would you want to?”

Fred H.

 

“Bumptop is not great or good or wonderful..IT IS A REVOLUTION. Truly, it is the most amazing piece of today’s technology that literally affects the common users! Take for example my Mom -- like all mothers she hates games and things that resemble games -- but upon seeing the Bumptop, she couldnt stop praising it. She almost ran out of breath whenI showed her how you could pile up icons and flip them like the pages of a book and actually convert your computer desktop into a real life shelf! So I was proud of the work presented and I think this should be globally introduced into every personal computer that is sold.”
