Sounds like I need a vertical touchscreen. I have terribly small forearms, and watches slide halfway to my elbow no matter what. Does the UI community have anything for triceps too?
If you can rest your elbow on the table and the screen is fairly close to you then you will not really feel a said gorilla arm.
In any case I sold my touchscreen and bought an IPS monitor instead (LG IPS236V). I'll take a picture of my updated rig when it arrives.
The main reason I sold it wasn't the touchscreen, just the fact that it had a glossy finish. It was practically a mirror (why on earth would you do that!?)
I actually at times miss the touchscreen, it was quite handy. I didn't really use it as a replacement for my mouse, but rather as something complimentary. It was especially useful when reading articles, PDF's or long threads. It's simply more comfortable if you don't need to grab your mouse every time you need to scroll (I like to keep my right hand on my chin while reading)
