[QUOTE="MJGraf, post: 58882, member: 17886"] Just to keep this discussion alive... My "final" htpc will have two displays: 1. Beamer (resolution 1280x720), 2. htpc-case with touchscreen. Although this configuration will probably be a little different from a (bigger) touchschreen in the kitchen, some problems might be the same: 1. The skin would have to be touchscreen-friendly, i.e. big buttons 2. There must be some kind of two-screen-support. The first point should not really be a problem. The second one is a problem... My idea so far is using a touchscreen that can display the same resolution like the beamer, even if it's not the touchscreen's native resolution (-> clone mode). This would in my case lead to the Silverstone LaScala LC 18 since the Dign X15e's touchscreen is not able to display 1280x720 (at least as far as I found out...) For you, there would even be another solution: Give your kitchen-touchscreen its own pc and use it as an intelligent remote control. Unfortunately this is not a solution for me because this would mean 2 htpcs in one case... So my question is: Are there other people having this idea or even having solved some of the problems? cheers, /Michael [/QUOTE]
