With the Kinect already a hit on the Xbox 360, many people are wondering if the add-on will ever be released for Microsoft's omnipresent product, Windows. Speaking with the BBC, Ballmer appeared to confirm that a PC-compatible Kinect will indeed be released--eventually, anyway.

When asked \"Will you be able to plug a Kinect into a PC?\" by the interviewer, Ballmer answered thusly: \"We'll support that in a formal way in the right time, and when we have an announcement to make, we'll make it.
