I'd be hesitant to use a touch panel screen of that size.... but if you can turn it horizontal and give it a nice glass surface, it could be a lot of fun to mess with and probably really good for workflow for some applications. Glad to see touch screen tech is getting cheaper and more flexible.

If you were to stand close enough to a 42-inch 1080p screen.. you wouldn't want to touch it.
