Wouldn't it be pretty "spiffy" if you could open up inkwell and write on the iMac's screen? Would be pretty cool for small businesses to use as a register... :cool:

    They have a hard time keeping the screens straight on the iMac as it is.....Would the arm hold the screen still while you pressed against it

    Ick! No! The iMac's screen isn't nearly strong enough or in a decent position for writing.



    That's where you would want the much rumored iPad.



    Furthermore, the technology is damn expensive for this. Take a look at Wacom's Cintiq:







    Cintiq 15x : $1,899 US

    Cintiq 18x : $3,499 US



    Ouch!! :eek:

    I guess your right. <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laughing]" /> I must be thinking about the iMac a little to much lately. After I pay off $3,000 for my 933 and 17" ASD, I'l love to buy one for my family...

    ?Feel free to adjust its height, depth and angle to suit yourself ? you can do it with one finger.?

    If one finger can push it easily, one pen pushed by a whole hand can just move the whole screen around.





    Anyway. What I want to see is a swiveling screen iBook with a stylus, where you can write to its screen using Ink.

    IRONY: The image on the iMac's screen is that of a racing game... and there are "advertisements" along the track for JAGUAR all over the place... heheh...
