               receiving a user touch input over physical pixel                         
               locations associated with said basic display units and in                
               response generating input command signals for identifying                
               said physical pixel locations, each processor means                      
               further including a first input connected to the network                 
               for receiving network communication and a second input                   
               connected to at least one touch sensitive screen for                     
               receiving input command signals corresponding to the user                
               touch input; and                                                         
                         d) further processor means functioning as a                    
               controlling processor, including:                                        
                               i) means for receiving said input command                
                    signals identifying said physical pixel locations                   
                    and in response converting said input command                       
                    signals to modified input command signals associated                
                    with logical pixel locations in said tessellation;                  
                               ii) means for receiving said modified input              
                    command signals and in response generating graphical                
                    command signals for operating on said logical pixel                 
                    locations in said tessellation;                                     
                               iii) means for receiving said graphical                  
                    command signals for operating on said logical pixel                 
                    locations in said tessellation and in response                      
                    converting said graphical command signals to                        
                    modified graphical command signals for operating on                 
                    said physical pixel locations associated with said                  
                    basic display units; and                                            
                               iv) means for transmitting said modified                 
                    graphical command signals to said basic display                     
                    units via said network, in response to which said                   
                    plurality of basic display units generate a                         
                    graphical image across said tessellation.
