I will become interested in a touchscreen when they invent one that doesn't attract fingerprints at all. I clean my phone vigorously every few days. It's a bit harder to wipe a Macbook screen with a t-shirt.
Or perhaps we're in for this sort of innovation:

Today i found the real reason for March event, with iphone Se etc.
Apple intent to make iOS10 64 only, and macos is 64 only next gen or the one after that watchos 64 only for easy development and the merge between all of them

El Capitan is the fastest OS X I've had on my 2011 MBP. Example - I have it hooked to a 30" ACD and using Mission Control/Exposé has always been like a slide show, and now it's butter smooth. I assume it has to do with Metal.
Let's gather up and make a chat room for the WWDC live stream. 
No chance.
Maybe, just maybe, there is a possibility if Apple choose a decent Polaris GPU.
But I won't be so sure about it.

Chat room?
We already have this thread!
Too many salt tears if no new MBP is announcedThat day macrumors servers are probably gonna fry.
I understand what you mean, but if you're typing, your hands would be as far away from the OLED thing as from the mouse. Tapping an icon would be faster than moving your hand to the mouse and moving the mouse to the dock and clicking, right?
I do understand you, just sharing what I think
. (and like @Serban says, it's about the customisation)
Then it'd be 100% useless for people who don't use the Dock to launch apps.

How often do you guys launch apps? Spotlight is fastest for this anyway.
Once your apps are open (even after restarting and they auto-relaunch) you use the command-tab thing to switch between them, not the Dock. Or Mission Control.
I think that in most likely hood it would end up being a customisable tool bar for apps. I.e. Quick access to tools in Adobe apps etc.
I'm worried this is going to be too much of a departure from a work/pro product that I've been waiting for... Shoot.
Hopefully it isn't as crazy as I imagine, the specs/stars align with my needs and I don't have to look elsewhere/older to get what I need. I'm perfectly willing to purchase a Mid-2015 model and then another PC laptop if I have to. My workflow comes before my need for some potentially weird gimmick.

I just came up with a possible usage of that touch bar.
Anyone think the same way?
QuickType (although not as fast as the keyboard solution) and basic shortcuts?
Hope apple can think further than me.
[doublepost=1464119307][/doublepost]Also I would like to mention that the reason iPad Pro's Smart Keyboard lacks function keys is one can easily swipe up control center when typing, which always includes all of the functionalities of the function keys.
(Although personally think they should make the screen active when the control centre is activated.)

Metal isn't supported on 2011 Macs; it's only 2012 or higher. So, 2011 Macs and earlier use an OpenGL fallback and any performance improvements are the result of other things.
One example that i heard is in testing for so called touch bar is the team behind apple music, on the touch bar you will have the lyrics for example from the song you are currently listen.I never think of that but it is a nice touch by Apple and very clear to see on oled display with black background and white

Serban, could you tell us where they put the Touch ID sensor on the prototype? On the Keyboard?
Thanks in advance.
Now let's just hope he gets the same sort of flash of genius for the Putain de Macbook pro http://www.cultofmac.com/429674/tim-cook-admits-iphone-is-too-damn-expensive/
The more this kind of leaks come out, the more I believe I'll end up with a 2015 13" rMBP..
All considered, regardless of the release time-frame (Q2, Q3, Q4, whatever), all these supposedly new features seem really troll-made to me. My personal opinion

Update: seems that reminders too or notifications will no longer pop up in the right upper corner of the macos screen but on the touch bar
That will be nice. I honestly find those pop ups annoying.
