Touchscreen monitors - Dumb question!

[jerryspaghetti]

Stupid question of the day but are monitors from touchscreen machines just standard CRTs?

Is there a seperate overlay that is applied to make it a touchscreen or is the actual tube specially made?

They are on Megatouch, touch screen is an overlay taped on.

3m microtouch as used on ipubs ect is a common one taped on with a foam strip between the touch glass & the screen.
