A touch screen is simply a mouse. All you need to do is make sure any
buttons, etc, are large enough to hit with a finger. The OS has
functionality built in to support larger menus, scrollbars, caption buttons,
etc (just use the Display Applet to set those) so don't get carried away
re-inventing the wheel (I have a patent on that). Once you're done, you can
have a bit of fun with the users (I do <g>) by asking them to right-click
the touch-screen and select 'Properties'... you can't imagine the number of
people that actually try that <g>

Ken,

don't get carried away re-inventing the wheel (I have a patent on that).

I wished I could reply to you this in Dutch.

Waarom gebruik je geen *Net* te ronde wielen in plaats van VoorBije 6
kantige.

(Why are you not using nice round wheels instead of those with 6 sides from
the past)

I could not resist and don't see this in any way serious.
