kokousic Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 Because real macs dont have touchscreen, so you will never have touch screen!

officeninja Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 Depending on your the digitizer maker, Touch Base might have a driver for you (they have one that works pretty well for the Samsung Ativ 700t) but they also want $100-$200 for every driver. It works well but I would never pay that much: http://www.touch-base.com/ Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/292572-installing-mac-on-a-touchscreen-laptop/#findComment-1953575 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lundin Posted October 13, 2013 Share Posted October 13, 2013 Hello. A short input o this one. I'm using an Acer LBMIDZ 27" 10-point Multitouch monitor with my newly built hack which works wonders with the touchbase drivers, also they have this gestures add-on for the "purchased" driver. They also told that if your'e a "home user" you get a discount to about $ 90 for the driver though i still think it's insanely expensive for the functionality it adds. The driver is free to try and have a 100-click limit before you have to reboot the computer ( to reset the "click-limit") so you could try to see if it works for you.
