They may be intuitive to use, and reasonable for basic things (screens
that are NOT full of things to press), but bad news for screens with
lots of clickable things on them, and bad news for anyone having to hold
their arm up to a screen to do anything more than press once every few
minutes.  You'd need to sink the monitor into the desk, before
touchscreens on a desktop become sensible.
