The model I read about uses the serial ports, has a "mouse emulation" mode, and even offers an optional UNIX driver. See http://www.touchscreen.com.hk/touchinf.htm You may want to assist your friend in using a web search engine as well. I found this in one minute by asking AltaVista to search for "+touch +screen". -- "Where am I, and what am I doing in this handbasket?"
