Isn't this touch screen setup what the Angry Gernan Kid uses in his video? It'd be great for those times you lose your temper and break your keyboard....
I used to play Dune 2, the app that really started the RTS genre, on an IBM Touchscreen kiosk that I was doing development work on under OS/2. Lots of fun...a great way to relax after finishing a program module at 3 in the morning at the office...turn up the sound system, and play Dune 2...with Ministry's Psalm 69 turned up way loud. Those were the dayz.....:-)ttyl Farrell
"it is a bitch to do this on linux...."I can't say how hard a touchscreen is to set up... probably not very. setting up wine and xgl is pretty easy though.

<a class="user" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hOg_tGIsYGs">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hOg_tGIsYGs</a>is just boring...Its the exact same thing but with an asian dude explaining every detail to you. The voice recognition is cool but its unlikely it'll be implemented in games anytime soon.
