I hope this is the right group to post this.

Does anyone know of an "out of the box" solution for creating simple
voting/polling on a touch screen?

I want to use a table PC as the basis for building a kiosk that would
provide a user with about six choices to select from. Then, after the
choice, show some type of graph to show the popularity of the choices.

Any help would really be appreciated.

Bob

You might consider looking at pocketpc or winCE devices... there are a
number of kiosk os apps available plus, the program you describe should
be simple to write and the cost would be lower.

That should be possible with a bit of programming skills in Powerpoint and
Excel.
