Hi Kent, Jon and All;
Thanks for your apology but the Motherboard has apparently worked well for
many; and for me also now.
Let me share a few of my similar experiences.
For the last 40 years my experience has been:

Hi,
Which is the best choice of touchscreen for industrial usage?
There are several kinds of vandal-proof, water-proof, dust-proof SAW
screens, also different which technology is more useful such as surface
acoustic wave, resistive or infrared?
Thanks.

Hi Caner
I just bougt an IEI DM 121 GXS R20 wich is an 12.1 XGA Monitor with resistive
touch screen for industrial use.
Connectors: Voltage Supply, VGA, DVI, Serial, USB
Touchscreen is connected serial or USB type penmount .
There is an x11 driver for it and IEI provides drivers, too, but I use
I don't know about 'industrial' touchscreens. I have a Micortouch CRT with
more than 10 years on it. The screen looks good still. It is running QNX and
the calibration is stable (very good for a CRT). It is just a commercial
monitor in a box that attempts to protect it. The only contamination
touchscreens mentioned on cadcamdro list http://tinyurl.com/2b9qsuf
dirt cheap , used, from Oz
I'll find out if they work in a few eeks when the boat gets here

I've had good luck with these screens... but I have never used these
screens with Touchy.I put a 19 unit on a commercial waterjet and
the system runs EMC2 with Axis for the front end. It worked out great.
This company has good customer service and has been around for a while.

Infrared has very low

The Ford Motor Company retired their last PDP11 last year. A sad day.

Resistive requires a pair of plastic resistive sheets
The SAW screens have a glass plate, so it is quite tough.
I think that capacitive is another technology? (iPhone etc?)

I apologize in advance that this is somewhat off topic.
I am beginning to feel a need to have a PC/server, to run Linux, that
would be extremely reliable and long lasting.
I would use it for
1) Holding a personal CVS repository
2) Running a nameserver
3) SSH port tunneling
4) Possibly serving
Maybe you look for industrial pc, like from http://www.advantech.com/,
http://www.industrialpc.com/, or maybe server specification like from
http://www.supermicro.com/products/motherboard/ATOM/
couse Industrial pc or server more reliable than consumer desktop pc.

Shoot, Don, had I known you are a veteran of the early big-iron
workstation wars, I wouldn't have fretted so much. The advantage of a
career in RD was that I got to live on the bleeding edge of technology.
I always hoped for the best but tried to plan for the worst. I could

Hi,
I am planning to move to MESA cards to drive my mill. AT present I'm trying to
decide between the 7i43 (parallel) or the 5i20 (PCI). Platform will be Intel
D510MO motherboard coupled with a 32Gb solid state disk.
