If you think this was in reaction to the Surface Desk you have no idea how product timelines work . Okay absolutely a fair point , but please keep in mind I wasn ' t trying to be all factual and more just trying to express my frustration . Albeit , one thing to consider is that the parallels I have drawn are not my own and are quite popular as well . But recognizing , as you have pointed out these are not fair comparisons , they do still present the question to the consumer about Apple perhaps not having the right vision ? If you think that the issue is that it ' s ' touch ' then you don ' t understand why Apple put the touch bar where it is rather than making the screen touch ready because a the screen is at a horrible position as compared to anything on the bottom half and b MacOS is just horribly touch optimised . Maybe , but then what is the point of the touch bar ? If you don ' t understand the issue with touchscreens or why this is not trying to do that , and if you ' ve never even tried it , I question the validity of this rant . Sorry but I ' m just not sure what you ' re saying . Though rants are rarely ever justified and more than anything are passionate frustated responses . Ultimately , my opinion is that a dynamic input could be a very useful addition to the OS , especially if apps make use of it . I can certainly see it being useful , but how useful ? For example , I can see having a touch screen on the mac as useful as well but it would be an unnecessary addition that is not really justified ? Also , I seem to be feeling like maybe my rant has come across to you as a jab at Apple ? It really isn ' t as I love my Apple devices , but am just confused and quite angry at the direction being followed ? I do apologize also for my lack of knowledge of certain things .
