And there was a recent interview that said they made the decision 2-3 years ago that they looked at touch screens on laptops and decided that was not the way they wanted their laptops to evolve. Leave the touch screens on the ipads. Which is what I'm going to try - I love using Duet on my ipad with my work Windows machine, will be fun to try it with the new macbook pro.Because having to lift your arm to touch the screen during a 8-hour workday is ridiculous and potentially painful. THAT is actually a clumsy idea.
