Isn't that what consumers are for?

> If they weren't desirable, they wouldn't be an option.
People have been saying that about growing cell phone sizes. "This phone is huge. It can't possibly get any bigger, no one would want it". Then someone comes out with a larger phone and it sells better than the last largest phone.
> Discounting you own personal feelings - they're popular.
Companies offering it as an option doesn't really say anything about popularity just ease of production.

Because they’re okay with producing shit products that have no justification to exist. It’s just marketing bs to charge for a feature (or more often make up for missing ones) by throwing a cheap touchscreen panel on

I’d love to see stats on non iPhone users who have AppleTV.

They're useful and people like them. Just because you don't, doesn't mean it's not a thing. Every other competitor is offering them.

Then why does every other brand offer them? If they weren't desirable, they wouldn't be an option. Discounting you own personal feelings - they're popular.

Isn’t this their thing? They just don’t give a f.

I've only seen people with touchscreen laptops because I recognized them as such, not because they were used as such. I don't know anyone that touches a screen unless they have to.

I disagree, I don’t think more options solves more things always. Have never seen a touch screen laptop that’s actually useful

But it should at least be an option at this point.

It's not. Virtually every other brand gives you the option.

Personably don’t want that, I hate touch screen laptops because of accidental touches and how grimey the screen gets.

Why would you want a touch screen on a laptop. That sounds awful.

So, no touchscreens still? They really don't want their iPad sales to slump.

To each their own, just because you don't like it doesn't mean it isn't popular
