You're very right to be wary. I was at first. Especially if the damn machine is (for some inexplicable and unneccessary reason) running windows. One crash and the whole thing messes up. And there could be numerous bugs or loopholes that allow people to vote more than they should. But it appears that whoever designed the system has managed to sort out those, there wasn't any sign of any possible way to mess it up. Thats why I was impressed. It *looks* like they've built a dummy-proof system. It may still prove me wrong I guess.
And pressing a screen is nowhere near as satisfying as drawing a cross in a box. It doesn't feel right. But it worked.
