Hi Bryan,
Not only that, but I don't think we have much of a choice. I've seen the
way Windows 8, Ubuntu Linux 12.04, etc are going and most of the
software developers are moving to a touchscreen type user interface.
Everyone and their uncle is copying Apple's iOS design and that can only
mean that the mainstream market is preparing to add touchscreen
technology to a wide range of technologies including the next generation
desktops, laptops, and netbooks. No matter how much we love or hate
touchscreens I see them becoming a standard input device over the next
ten years if not sooner. Rather than complaining about it I think we
should do our best to adapt to them, and our efforts should be focused
on making sure the new technology is as accessible as it can be.

I think you're missing the point though. Touch screens are cheaper to
make and qite frankl last longer since eventually buttons will give
out. My laptop for instance is missing te Tab key. Besides, now tat
it's been proven that touch screens CAN be made accessible I can see a
big leap forward in terms of our technology.
Are you threatening me? I am the great Cornholio! I come from Lake
