Which multi touch systems work?

Hi there, I currently know of a few multi touch capable systems.

HP Touchsmart TX2
Dell Tablet XT2
Dell Studio One Desktop

Do all these systems support Windows 7 multitouch currently?

Check out www.3m.com/multitouch. 3M offers Win7-compatible, 10-finger multi-touch technology.

That's interesting... even though it doesn't answer my question.. and YIKES
it costs as much as a fulll system when it's just a display! :P

I have the HP Touchsmart .. In fact I am using it right now. It is a
beautiful
Monitor but let me be perfectly honest .. BIG WASTE OF MONEY !!!

I bought this more than 6 months ago and I swear, in the past 5 months I
have
NEVER touched the screen. I love touch games for example. I thought
Mahjong
etc would be awesome on this computer. Within the first 2 or 3 minutes your
arm is
so uncomfortable. I have NEVER used the pad for writing .. The screen is at
an angle
that it is almost impossible.

When you are standing up with the monitor a foot or two from your finger and
you touch
it a couple of times, seems like a great idea .. get it home and you will be
so disappoints.
The only good thing is the space it saves with the hard drive in the
monitor. I don't even
want to think about what happens to my "stuff" if the monitor breaks and I
am without my
data while it is being repaired ..what if it has to be replaced ?? HP Going
to just ditch my
hard drive ??

I have purchased the HP Tx2z-1300 (nov 09).
So far, is a super machine. more affordable than the 2730p,
and has internal CD/DVD.
I am still learning a few things about
which pieces of bloatware can be kicked or disabled.
The capacitive touch is working well under Win7 pro.
wish i'd ordered the 'erasing' model of pen but,
i've done that now.
This replaced an Acer tm-c301 tablet purchased in '03.
also a great machine.
Maxed out the ram and processor for work as network tech.
planning to install vm and win2008 on machine as well.
Did not buy for games but, google earth and MS Surface Globe
are easier with the multi-touch than with mouse.
my 2 cents.
