Well consider this for touchscreen lcds ... how exactly do you boundbox-drag and zoom in using a supposed mousewheel? :) If you intend to play virtually any non-turnbased game, you're gonna have quite some difficulty :)

You are correct however this is hardly effective nor efficient in a fast paced game of say, CnC Generals (not just because selecting units becomes a serious chore but scrolling around becomes a challenge hehe).
