I’ve got a project I’m thinking of using Ignition on and I would like to install it on a small touchpanel, say 6 to 7 inches. Does anyone have any products that they would recommend? Thanks TW ---

I used this one on a project awhile back and had good results. [advantech.com/products/PPC-L … 6F62A.aspx](http://www.advantech.com/products/PPC-L62T/mod_6D911416-1B87-40D9-9EC8-0CD36CE6F62A.aspx) ---

I Had been using Advantech 6" monitors with a separate ‘nettop’ PC, but they’re not available anymore. But on the bright side, I found their [10" monitors](http://buy.advantech.com/10+4+800X600+SVGA+Panel+Mount+Mo/IDS+3210ER+23SVA1E/model-IDS-3210ER-23SVA1E.htm) for $375.00 US. If you have the space, it may be a viable option, and ger a little more real estate. For lower-end apps (Basically OPC server-only) I use these [Foxconn units](http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16856119056.). They’ve worked well for me aside from a couple of CMOS batteries. My review can also be found at that link. For a bit higher-end, I’d really like to try one of these [Shuttle units.](http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16856101142) Put up to 16GB RAM, two SATA connections-- I’ll stop here, because I’m starting to drool… BTW, welcome to the forum! ---

That 10" looks nice, I think I’ll see if I can make room for it and give it a try. Thanks! TW ---

Another question, what OS do you usually run on these? ---

Mostly XP and Win7 for me, but I have a couple Ubuntu installs as well. Some would say I’m indecisive, but I like to call it ‘equal opportunity’… 😆 ---

Yes, that was what I was noticing, looks like it will run on about anything
