Im currenty running 2 19" samsung monitors. Im thinking about adding a touchscreen to my setup as a 3rd monitor does anyone know if this is possible or tried it? Is it possible to have 2 cursors?

Never done a touchscreen but I have had three mouse devices hookedu at up at once.

All three are usb based:
(1) Wired Mouse
(2) Wireless Mouse
(3) Wireless Pointer Device

No conflicts they all work without a glitch (although this may be because they are usb). You still have ONLY ONE CURSOR but whatever device you are using at that very second will take control.

Its like if you have a laptop and hookup an external moues, the touchpad still works even though you can also use the external mouse.

I am unsure if this does or how it would apply to a touchscreen but assuming hardware conflicts aside you should have no problem having two pointing devices on one computer.

so, because of the sampling frequency, if i had several touch screen monitors hooked up they would all independantly feed information without appearing to clash?

i guess, i'll just have to try them and see.
