Touchscreen MacBook may emerge despite Steve Jobs warning
Steve Jobs (Steve Jobs), Apple\'s co-founder, opposed adding a touchscreen to the MacBook, arguing it was not suitable for long use. At a 2010 \"Back to the Mac\" event, he said prolonged screen touching could cause fatigue and reduce precision, favouring trackpads and mice instead. Apple kept that policy, though it later tried the Touch Bar. Recent foreign reports say Apple is preparing an OLED touchscreen MacBook Pro, though there is no official announcement.
