You know you've made it when your little-laptops-that-could sit atop a market-share big enough to support third-party device-hackery like this. It's "easy," it's "fun," it's a solder-less DIY touch-screen kit made specifically for the Acer Aspire One and Eee PC 900/901 netbooks. The 4-wire, resistive panel display with Mac, Linux, and Windows drivers sure looks easy enough to install. But we'll wait for the reviews to see just how well the $96 panel (a cool 25% of the netbook's price) performs under day-to-day use, thankyouverymuch. We've got our Windows 7 pre-beta ready just in case.

EDIT: deleted previous comment due to realising something.

Realized after post that the seller is fidohub, maybe one of the best suppliers of eee modifications there is.

Thats what i get for ranting before checking all the information.

Pretty cool. Too bad I'm skeptical of anything other than the mouse and keyboard for my PC.
