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.

    Way too expensive. Could buy the top spec iPad for the money it costs.

      Thanks for your comment, very true David, but I guess this method offers those that want a full Mac OS X experience the choice of touchscreens as opposed to just the 'iPhone OS' on iPads.

    It's wonderful to read about a female poet coming of age in this era, especially with Anne Sexton as a mentor for a short while, but so many other poetic luminaries as well. I'm also finding it encouraging to know, being 38 myself, that one can jumpstart her career at this age. Thank you for this inspiring interview, Julie Kane. http://Like-Acer.com
