I saw a touchscreen for a Macintosh at Laseractive '87 in Boston
this past fall.  It was made by MicroTouch Systems of Woburn, MA
(617) 935-0080.  I have not personally used it, but it demo'd OK,
and their other touchscreens are reasonably popular.  One strange
thing was that their interpretation of the mouse's double click
was indeed a double touch, which I found slightly confusing.  But
that should be adjustable in software...
