Got a mpb 15 with radeon X1600, formatted and installed W7. after a little fight got all my audio gear setup working nicely, plus the touch drivers of my layer. cool. unfortunately the mpb is not designed like a tablet pc, and you can't return the screen ;)

..so the pb is, that in the normal laptop position, I got a little spring effect when pressing, releasing the touch screen wich can create unwanted touch interpretations.

I thought I could turn the laptop 180° in both way so the screen could be solid put on the floor while keabord on air, and touch is so much accurate. But then I need to rotate 180° the whole desktop, no pb
I go to the ati driver and try to rotate....

...no such option! arf, don't why apple locked the driver like that Im not able to download a driver directly from ati. managed to install an old one with the option there but doesn't do anything if enabling :(

any ideas? is there other way to rotate screen via software? ( or should i all inverse my interface items, ouch...)

yup im on w7, seems there is a tablet option to natively rotate but as the mac hasn't the hardware swich im blocked, arf
the workaround is to put something heavy behind the screen, not the top hehe
