    An iPadBook, huh? Its a bold move, Cotton…

    I had a work laptop with a touchscreen and used that functionality exactly 0 times (after trying it out). If it had the ability to fold back into a Lenovo Yoga-style tablet form factor, it would have been a completely different story, though.

    I definitely am a fan of NOT having a touchscreen. It was one of the pluses of the Macs, IMHO. When my parents or kids accidentally tap the screen pointing something on their touchscreen ThinkPad, it tends to screw things up and cause me to have to fix things for them.

    I am also really worried they’re going to start making things “touch friendly” now… And we’re going to end up with the MacOS equivalent of Windows 8.

    Who is this for, honestly? They can’t innovate so they just shove panels where they haven’t been before.
