- About a year ago I saw someone demonstrate a touch screen that simply
- fitted over a regular 14" VGA monitor. It converted the "touches" into
- mouse signals. In other words, once you have written software to work
- with a Microsoft mouse you don't have to change anything to make it work
- with this touch screen. Did that make sense? Anyway, I can't remember
- who made it or how much it cost, etc. If anyone out there has any info on
- this or similar products, I'd be most interested in getting it. Also, if
- you have ideas for other touch screens or alternatives I'd like to hear them.
