Hello Joseph.  Great to hear back from you.   Excellent news!   I downloaded   
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/  
trusty-desktop-amd64.iso           07-Mar-2014 07:52  933M  Desktop image for 
64-bit PC (AMD64) computers (standard download)
and made a bootable USB stick with Starup Disk Creator, then booted up the Dell 
XPS 18 touch with the Ubuntu Trusty Desktop version 14.04, and the following 
worked:

Touchscreen allowed me to touch on the Try Ubuntu button on screen per the USB 
boot stick.
Ubuntu 14.04 then booted up into Unity correctly with no errors, and the screen 
looked great all around, nothing missing.
I was able to touch the top bar to drop down the wireless menu and setup my 
wireless and it worked. 
Touch the icons on the left side menu bar, and have applications like the 
onscreen OB keyboard and Firefox startup.
I was able to use the touchscreen to type on the OB keyboard, as well as use 
the OB keyboard with Firefox screens to do a Google search, etc.   
Finally I was able to clock the top/left function bar to drop down the menu and 
shutdown Ubuntu 14.04.  

So, all, in all, I'd say this was very successful on the Dell XPS 18
touchscreen !!!  Do you want any other tests performed?

Thank you,
Peter
