Windows Touch
Humans are tactile beings, with brains that are wired for touch. PCs and devices can come to life in
entirely new ways when you use your  ngers to control what happens on the screen, making PC use

more naturally. With Windows 7 and a touch-enabled monitor, virtually any program that works with
Windows now responds to your touch.
