Or combine both but why does Apple not do a touch screen?

Federighi added that it's awkward and uncomfortable to sit at a desk and continuously reach forward to touch a computer screen. It's not like an iPad or iPhone that you hold in your hands and use in a "very relaxed position."

"We've really focused on building the best track pads we can, something where it feels [like] your posture's relaxed, it's a comfortable machine to use," he said. "And, of course, over the years we've experimented with all the technology, but we found it just wasn't good. ... We're not all that interested in building one."

They should let the consumer decide that.

Well, valid argument, I guess. I actually think a "MacBook Flip" (clearly I made that up) would be awesome. Imagine it similar to the MS SurfaceBook but instead of that fulcrum hinge on the MS SB, it would fold 360degrees and turn from a laptop to an ipad and then fold back into a laptop... AND have a touch screen.

It'd be a new product and one that business professionals could use for work and play.
