You just need the proper interface, no need to write a whole new OS. My carputer that's been installed since 2004 is touchscreen and it's been running Server 2003 since I built it. I've never had to use a keyboard. Of course you never see the Windows interface, all you ever see is Centrafuse.

I'd like to see more development on this, it's far from finished but at least it shows it can be done. I'm interested in seeing how I can incorporate it into my next carputer. Navigating the system with the wave of a hand is better than having to look for a button while driving. I'd never have to reach for the touch screen again
