It says touchscreen ready so they probably sell you the kit to make it a touchscreen and charge you again so your total cost will probably double.

Notice how nowhere in the description or specifications does it ever mention touchscreen.  ;)

Look under "Optional Accessories"

Not sure on a 17", but we have gotten them in the 15" size regularly around here for under $100.  I was able to score TWO working elo 15" SAW monitors for under $50 total! (but I got real lucky too)
