I find touchscreens fine in the right form factor (handheld, mainly), but I’ll never get the appeal of a touchscreen on a device running a desktop OS. Reaching up to touch a laptop screen feels awkward and laptop screens are some of the worst when it comes to rejecting fingerprints.

Plus, even if the manufacturer gets on board with an OS that is truly touch-friendly on a laptop, getting all the software manufacturers to also update their UIs for touch will be a long, long haul, I'm afraid.
