What? If Apple makes any traditional laptop touch screen, I'll stop believing they know what they're doing. Touch screen laptops and even desktops in their current iteration make little to no sense from a user experience point of view.
When you have to move your hands from the x plane in front of you (keyboard) to the y plane (screen), it's not a comfortable position to hold your arm at as your arm and hand are unsupported. Just the movement required itself slows productivity in working, as you have to stop typing and raise your hand or hands to go to the screen to do some move that could have been accomplished faster with a gesture based trackpad, as Apple has been offering for years.
Beyond that, who in the right minds wants fingerprints all over their laptop or desktop screen? I get it that with a phone or tablet, it's easy enough to wipe clean as needed, but when you go bigger in laptop or desktop form, the ability to quickly clean becomes more problematic. I hate it when my kids point to something on their laptop screen, touching the screen and leaving fingerprints everywhere. There just is not a good reason to interact with any computer this way.
