    While I agree with the fact that using a touch screen in a daily grind of work woudl not be satisfactory, I fully agree with your assertion that the Touch Screens are potentially great for Self Service options.

    I too am aware that touch screens have been around at least since 1988 as I worked for a governent tourism office with whom I had negotiated to trial a machine in our information centre.

    The issue I wonder if they have solved in the Business to client field (self Service) is the residue build up on the scrfeen. I recall that one of the issues in the past has been the LACK of response of some touch screens over time as the residue of greasy fingers starts to pile up on the screen.

    All in all touchscreen computers would solve some issues I have and allow me to spread my business into areas I currently have issues due to the size and needs of omputing systems.
