The naysayers that poo poo touch screen portable pc's that aren't a tablet or convertible form factor, they just don't realize how useful a touch screen can be on a regular notebook. I just added a touch screen to my Aspire One D150 netbook and i would never ever want to go back to using the touch pad on it, or lugging a mouse around! No way in hell... the touch pad is awkward as heck to use and a lot of the time i'm just holding the netbook in my hand or on the couch and there's no place for a mouse anyway. Touch screens rock on netbooks and i can see them being great for regular notebooks too. Now every time i'm using my netbook and go to do something on my boat anchor sized notebook i try to touch the screen before i realize i've got to resort to using the mouse! Ugh! lol
