The touchscreens I've done recently have to on 50" screens, mostly in a vertical orientation. It's ironic that gestures and touch/swipe was brought to us by Apple and all the screens have PC drivers only. :) Go figure.
The hardware is dependent on what your program will be doing. I've had some that ran on anything desktop and a couple that a separate running animated video background for each of seven sections, plus 20 selectable videos and a 125meg attract video, along with all the content and graphics for the seven sections and we brought just about every PC to its knees. Ended up with a very high box, with a beefy graphics card. So really your hardware selection gets driven by what your going to build, system resource requirements, usage (kids :), a length service (time wise). If you want specific hardware spec's, I could ask a couple of my clients what they settled on. Later, John R.
