Apple MacBook and iMac with touchscreen now available from Troll Touch

Posted on November 9th, 2009 by Editorial Staff in Laptops / Computers, Technology

The latest MacBook and iMacs with upgraded specs are great, however they are still missing one thing which many PCs are now beginning to have – touchscreen technology. This is especially so since Windows 7 now officially supports the use of touchscreens. Though MacBooks and iMacs with touchscreens are not actually being produced and sold by Apple and instead by Troll Touch, a company with a long history of enabling touch technology for Apple computer products.

Troll Touch has announced their new touchscreen systems for the 13 inch Unibody MacBook laptop as well as Apple’s 21.5-inch and 27-inch iMac.

These new systems offer analog resistive touchscreen technology running at a 12 bit touchscreen resolution. The MacBook touchscreen is something that needs to be fully integrated at the factory, there is also a choice for a “SlipCOVER” touchscreen system.

Troll Touch will begin delivery on December 1 (another good idea to add to your Christmas shopping list then), in some cases a little before. All products will come with one year warranty. Prices start at $699.00 for the MacBook Touchscreen and $899.00 and $1099.00 respectively for the 21.5-inch and 27-inch iMacs SlipCOVER version. The internal iMac implementations will cost $1099.00 and $1699.00.
