lcd Microcontrollers
PeterG:
jaRON, i have never seen an LCD 'Programmer'. LCDs are controlled by the mcu, there are some with a limited flash memory for storing images but thats about it. You will need to develop the the firmware for the mcu to get the display to work as you intend. Ideally you will use HARDWARE interrupts to handle the touch panel responses, however i dont think Picaxe gives you access to the Hardware interrupts.
To get the display working you will need to read the documentation for the display. Once you get that working, then start on the touch panel input handling. Once you have that done, you will understand the overhead a LCD and Touchpad put on a mcu.

i looking for a Microcontrollers that i can run 17 fans on and a lcd touch screen I like to have 25 out and 10 in. What is the best Microcontrollers.
PeterG:
I would start with the Microchip website.

I would not use anything below a PIC18 for this project.

What's wrong with parametric searches? There is no best in engineering without proper specs. Almost any uC vendor will have some suitable product. Having enough RAM for a frame buffer might be helpful.
PeterG:
The page i posted has links to parametric searches for each PIC Family.
