ASUS EeeTop PC ET2002T Ion and Touchscreen

[buckle]

A bit pricey to me, but I wouldn't mind having one of these in my kitchen...

Anybody else think this would be a good fit somewhere in your house?

I've been waiting for an nvidia graphics based touchscreen.  It is exactly what my wife wants for the kitchen.

Anybody know if this will work with LMCE OK?  They're $599 on Newegg and I'm sooooo buying one if they work.

We expect the ET2002T will be able to be supported as with other Ion hardware... the one area which is a jump into the unknown is the Touch screen as this will need driver support and it will depend what hardware its based on. We plan to test one of these units soon so that we can add support for it to Dianemo/Cascade http://forum.linuxmce.org/index.php?topic=8880.0

So I will report back once we've done our tests.

All the best

Wow.  Thanks Andrew, it looks like a great machine if the touch interface is supported.
