Several third party developers have come out with their own touchscreens that are compatible with your Mac computers. One thing I noticed about these screens is that they have several flaws that are not found with the Troll Touch Screen. The third party touchscreens happen to not recognize your touch as smoothly as the Troll Touch does. You are forced to put a bit too much pressure on your screen to get something done. By doing this, you are slowly causing damage to your computer screen. You do not want to do this because your screen will soon not work and there goes the hard earned money you paid for it.
The arrival of the Troll Touch screen is something that is truly marvelous. Troll Touch has been placing their touchscreen technology on many different types of displays for years. So it was only a matter of time that the company incorporated their technology into a solid computer screen for the Mac. The company made sure to not miss a beat with their latest product. Here is my review of the the Troll Touch and why I think it is one of the best screens you can purchase on the market.
To put it rather honestly, the Troll Touch touchscreen does what all of their technology has always seemed to do, that is work. In order to have one of these fancy touchscreens, it is going to cost you a pretty penny. You can get the screen with the new iMacs for the prices of $2499 and $3899. The first price will land you a 20-inch screen model with a 2.0GHZ system. You will get the 24-inch touchscreen and 2.8GHZ for the much higher price. If you happen to already have a iMac and just want to upgrade to a touchscreen, they displays are also sold separately. You can own the 20-inch screen for $1099 and the 24-inch screen for $1599. Trust me, it is well worth the price.
You can put a decent amount of pressure on the touchscreen without harming the screen. Your finger acts as the mouse. You can simple click and drag or click on the files or programs you want to access. Troll Touch has done an amazing job on the release of their own touchscreen. It will be interesting to see how Apple's own version stands up. Seeing that it has taken the company so long to develop one, insiders feel that there might be some new kind of technology incorporated into the touchscreen. Whatever it is, Apple is taking forever to come out with it. If you just can not wait like my friend could not, you can order one today without having to wait. Just visit the Troll Touch website to find out more about the amazing touchscreen for the iMac.

Post a CommentI have one of these screens, and don't disagree with anything in this review. It's better than the cheap LCDs you can buy, but in my opinion at the price, there are better touch screens, but nothing for the Mac that I've seen.
I have huge problems with the support from the company. It seems as if they stop supporting products much too quickly. My iMac came with the software for the touchscreen installed, but no discs to reinstall. When a drive failure occurred, I contacted Troll Touch about getting it set back up. Quick responses, but they will NOT send me the drivers or software to be able to continue to use it, and they responded that they require that I send it back, pay $250+s/h to 'upgrade' the controller, and setup the software for it. Don't buy this expecting to be able to use it for a long time, if your drive fails, or you try to reinstall for some reason (upgrade OS, etc.), you'll probably encounter something as I did, and have pay more to get it 'up
