Are you a lobbyist for some type of compute with your fingers organization? You just keep shooting down perfectly legitimate points people make with your weak rhetoric.
You said in post #68 you use iPads.....that is not desktop.
Yes, thats why i would welcome multitouch support in the OS.

no, i work in Audio, and i manipulate up to 7 parameters simultaneously with touch, also, when i collaborate we can both interact at the same time, with a mouse you are limited to 1, there are pro's and cons to everything.
The Touch area is between Keyboard and the main monitors, at an angle.

That's a fair point. I wonder if it would be possible technically to have more than one mouse cursor on a screen in collaborative work? It might be interesting when said users are working remotely from each other as happens more often now.
Not a chance. And to make things even more fun, it's going to be even more of a challenge to make a hackintosh, assuming that will even still be possible.
thats exactly one of the issues, a touch Monitor is just a screen that acts as a Mouse connected over USB, the moment you touch it, your Cursor moves to Touchscreen. now You have to move it back on the main Monitor.
that alone kills the workflow.
probably not, although an entry Model could very well be more affordable than now.
If Mac computers go the way of the tablet, then my hand will be forced to go 100% Windows on the desktop. I swear... computer users are devolving.
This, sadly is where technology is going. I had thought the Coronavirus would have slowed development down, but it’s not. As for Mac OS X - like Windows 10 which is the last version, I think Catalina maybe the last Mac OS X. There won’t be a MacOS 11

Forget about that.
at that time all I would do is replace the 2015 Retina MacBook Pro with something similar.
the only interest i would have in ARM macos would be to run it on android phones (this may sound like a crazy idea, however, some android phones have already had UEFI ported and can boot linux, and even windows 10 for arm, so its not that far fetched) and cheap sbc's like the raspberry pi's, as for actual apple ARM hardware, i've already lost interest in new apple hardware long ago, and have not bought any new macs nor iOS devices for years (i use android on the mobile end now and powerpc for my macs) and i doubt that will change with arm-based hardware.
