alternatives to them - - on our public wiki:

I was pointed to these a while ago
http://www.iiyama.com/gb_en/products/prolite-tf1932mc-1/, available drivers

Thanks, all! I'll take another look at the ELOs, as well as the 3Ms. We
don't need multitouch for this installation, but it'd be good to have that
capability for future purposes. Y'all rock!
Cheers,

We have a few folks here who use IrfanView (http://www.irfanview.com). It is
pretty easy to use and has great batch functions. There are also a ton of
plugins, only problem is it is Windows only.
