and i have.

Be careful when buying as some will only work with vista and 7.

You need the screens with drivers that specifically say they can be used on xp.

So, what's the answer?  Can Mach3 be used on a touch screen without using a mouse?

Yes. It is a touchscreen why would you need a mouse? I run an ELO touchscreen myself and love it.
I want to die in my sleep like my grandfather, not like the passengers in the car! :-)

I just bought a new, boxed 16" Advantech screen of evilbay. Touch screen on Mach 3? essential! works a treat.

I still use a keyboard as I find onscreen keyboards fiddly, also I still have a trackball which I use for menu items especially. Pics below of two of my control panels, as you can see I also like real buttons/switches for the most used functions.
