Dell has sold XPS laptops with touchscreens for nearly 10 years. I had an XPS 2015 and it worked great.

My son is 9 years old, and currently uses my old XPS as his computer. He assumes every screen is a touchscreen - even my desktop monitor and large TVs. He would think a 2023 MacBook was something from before he was born.

I always used to laugh at my Macbook Pro using colleagues who'd go on about how awesome their Macbook was despite that Dell being more powerful, thinner, had a pretty good touch screen and also about a third cheaper.

And all these reviews mentioning how a new random touchscreen / 2-in-1 laptop is a mac clone.

The first touchscreen laptop was HP-150 released in 1983. Do with that information what you will.

I feel like they are going to implement it in an amazing way BUT I remember how touch bar was such a disaster and I'm not sure how they'll work it out
