Apple supplies drivers for Windows running on a Mac with Bootcamp. I read that it doesn't work on Windows running on a PC.
I haven't heard about Linux yet.

Well, I just got one and it's great! Feels just like the old Fingerworks pad except my fingers glide a little easier on the Glass surface. Apples default gestures are limited but I'm using the alpha version of BetterTouchTool that adds a full compliment of gestures and customizations and it's workin...

There is a third party application, BetterTouchTool that adds a whole slew of customizations to the laptop trackpad and it'd going to be updated for the Magic Trackpad soon. It adds all the gestures that the iGesture pad had. http://blog.boastr.net/ I'm sure someone will write drivers for PC's befor...

I have a powered port and I've checked by limiting the amount of connections. I found though, that the right mouse button continues to work. Just the keyboard and left mouse button locks up. Both on the touchstream and regular keyboards and mice. As soon as I unplug the touchstream everything frees ...

I find my touchstream periodically locks up the usb ports so that everything stops working. If I unplug the touchstream, usb is freed up and works normally. I then replug the touchstream and it works fine also until it decides to lock up the usb again. Anyone know what causes this and if there's a f...

Apple's biggest challenge...

Finding an artist that can draw hands.

Why don't they go raid Pixar or something?

One of Apple's biggest markets is in graphics yet they don't have an Apple drawing tablet. Other companys already have laptops that take pen input.
