Lingraphica AllTalk Touchscreen MacBook 2011
You’ve seen the touchscreen iMac G3 from 1999, now check out Lingraphica’s AllTalk touchscreen MacBook. It was designed for those dealing with aphasia, which is a language disorder that can make it difficult to understand or produce written as well as spoken language.



As you might have guessed, this is simply a heavily modified MacBook with a resistive touchscreen, which means it’s far heavier than a factory model, hence the built-in kickstand. Powering this MacBook is an Intel Core 2 Duo processor running at 2.4GHz and 2GB of 1,067MHz DDR3 RAM. One major issue is needing administrative permission to install standard OS X apps outside of Lingraphica’s own software.
