Touch the computer, sure, but please don’t touch the screen with your filthy grease fingers.

My work laptop has a touchscreen. I've never used it, but other people use it by accident fairly often. Usually only once each though, the look of shock is sometimes even worth the fingerprint :D

I've never understood people who do this. You can point at the screen, tap with a pen, take the mouse or keyboard and move the cursor, etc. but surely it's bad manners to splodge your finger on someone's screen.
