Hi All,
Looking for a bit of help here, trying to buy a Touchscreen monitor for my step dad's computer (Xmas Present). He's got a tower computer and has just put on windows 7. I know it supports touchscreens and thought it'd be a cool present, however.

I know sweer FA about what would be a suitable model. Looking to spend about £300-400. Can anyone point me in the direction of something compatible?

Many thanks

I think you'll struggle to find a reasonable monitor for that price,
have a look here: Touch screen LCD monitors - Computer, video and touchscreen (http://www.computermonitors.co.uk/touch_screen_lcd.htm)

touchscreens are incredibly annoying and causative of upper shoulder, neck, and arm strain.

They are best intended for casual and intermittent use with frequent breaks, i.e at a kiosk or restaurant point of sale terminal (one minute usage every 5 minutes)

The last thing I want is a touchscreen monitor. I have enough trouble keeping Mrs Wader's fingers off the screen as it is. Next screen I get will have a hard glass front!

Check out the Acer T230H. It supports multitouch.
