Sure. Trackpad is nice... much better than eraser-head mouse on some laptops. Touch screen is even better, for some cases. Of course, on the iPad and devices without a physical keyboard, such as the ATM. I am not going to use a mouse on a cash station alright.
But what about a regular computer, where you need to open programs, rearrange windows etc. If you have to reach out to the screen all day, you get TIRED. The mouse gives you precise location, more precise than your finger. The mouse is a good addition to computing and I don't see anything that can replace it yet. And I ain't buying a more expensive machine with touch enabled. The right click, how the heck are you going to simulate with Touch? some finger detection? and the Mac lacks that. Option-Click is not as good, ok?
Some people just HAVE to think they are some forward thinking revolutionary, but they are NOT.
The mouse is dead? I beg to differ.
