Re: I need a touch screen for a kiosk. What should I look for?



The funny thing about touch screens is that the issues isn't so much the
hardware. It realy comes down to the quality of the driver. I think HP
does a better job than just about anyone else in this area but I HIGHLY
recommend testing it with your presentations to make certain there are no
gottcha's hanging around the corner.
