Anecdotal — but have had no trouble for the last two years with my dell xps. Other issues with said laptop (keyboard), but touchscreen support in linux isn't one of them.

Ah, I saw that the Dell XPS came with Linux and had a touch screen, and I was kind of wondering about that. I guess I'll have to try Linux with a touchscreen again.

My Surface Pro 1 is the only computer I have with a touchscreen right now, and it has enough other driver issues (the wifi and the Wacom drivers suck) that I probably won't be trying again on that.
