Not likely, as they are ergonomic failures. The topic of touchscreens on Apple notebooks has been discussed many times, in threads such as this: https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/1273162/[/URLas a very long term apple corporate user, i wonder if they fell behind... i just tried a win 8 touchscreen ultrabook, and it is very cool and nice for corporate use. will apple do that?
What does a touchscreen have to do with a corporate environment?i just tried a win 8 touchscreen ultrabook, and it is very cool and nice for corporate use.
I will be getting a Win8 Pro hybrid; either the Lenovo Yoga 13 or Dell XPS 12. After that purchase, my iPad and 2012 MacBook Pro will be collecting dust.
Just a FYI, I bought a Yoga and returned it. Don't get one until they ship with 256gb SSD's.
The 128 one I bought I got home and realized Lenovo carved up the 128 into 7 different partitions to support the BS 1 touch recovery system they have, leaving a 63gb partition, and a 24gb one, of which the 24gb is reserved as recovery of user data. By the time you finish initial setup of Win8 you're left with 42gb of free space on the system drive. Given Win8 native apps don't prompt for a install location that's where they go too.
Store display upon going back and looking at it had a handful of apps and 5gb free. Nice machine, I really liked it, but the blade version Samsung830 it has in it isn't on the streets yet in bigger sizes. Machine was rushed to market to make launch IMHO

I know that and saw your review on the Best Buy site. I plan on getting an 128GB SD card.
I played around with the HP All-In-One. The 23" touch screen is on a sliding stand that tilts the screen almost flat; so there is little reaching to touch the screen. I find interacting with that easier than using my iPad3.
Touch screen is far more intuitive and less fatiguing when used for long periods.

If you're the tinkering type, the awesome thing about the Yoga is that is has a second internal slot for a mini-PCI SSD card. So for another $200 you can add a 256GB SSD to have a total of 384GB of storage. (Plus another $23 gets you 8GB of RAM, while you have the Yoga open you can swap the 4GB SODIMM for a larger one...)
