Yeah, I did eventually get around to that. Read previous posts and the newly updated instructions at http://dellmini.restmass.net

My fault for not reading more closely. Excellent write up, by the way.

The installation guide at http://dellmini.restmass.net is "friendly" now
Also, I put my Mini up for auction on eBay. Search for "Dell Mini Touchscreen", item 220321425333
or try this monster URL: http://cgi.ebay.com/Dell-Mini-9-with-To ... 240%3A1318

Do you plan on getting another one to mod?

This is pretty cool and all, but honestly, isn't it a little inconvenient to use the touchscreen without a swivel hinge?

I am planning to install touchscreen as I have RSI problems using the trackpad /mouse.
any problems using finger nails for point /click urls or buttons?

Is it really good for sustained use? any breakdown issues?
I did order couple of laptop LCD panels from taiwan / HK in the past but they don't seem to have a good durability.

I want to use this on OSX for mostly browsing / checking office emails , remote desktop to XP etc
