Foxboro's touchscreen CRTs have a touchscreen unit in them that is made by
MicroTouch. Foxboro has someone outfit the CRTs with the touchscreens.
Even more difficult is the thought that I believe the touchscreen
controller is not located in the CRT chassis. I believe it is located in
the GCIO. You will need to deal with someone that can provide a CRT that
has touchscreen hardware in it that is compatible with the GCIO.

Please respond to "Foxboro

Foxboro screens (historically) are actually made by Sony Corp. You
might be able to find replacements there, although will not be
supported if you have a service contract.

When we converted to I/A about six years ago, we got the big Sony monitors
with the touch screen option. They are great to work with and the
operators
really like them. Apparently they have a life span of about six years of
continuous use. We have burned out seven of them in the past three months
and at this rate I don't expect the rest of them to last much longer. I've
got 15 more displays to replace. Soon.
I know that there are video display options besides the Foxboro offerings,
but I have yet to see any with a touch screen. Have any of you found a
viable replacement?
Foxboro offers replacements, but $3000 is a lot to pay for a 20" TV set
that
only gets one channel --- even if you can use the screen as a remote.
