Conveniently ignoring that it's sold at the same price as the MacBook Pro retina 13'' is convenient.

  The touchscreen is everything. I would willingly pay double, triple for a touchscreen macbook pro.

    really? for the price i assume it's a computer for working. I can hardware imagine a single situation when i'm programming code / writing with a word processor / making music / creting graphics and I'd feel the need to dirty the vertical screen that's in front of me with a movement of the arm that gets me away from the keyboard and the mouse. Oh, let alone that I can hardly use a computer running Linux to work professionally in the graphics / music / media fields, but to each his own: maybe you like the idea of a 1300$ machine to surf the web and play angry bird, and it's not overpriced since it's not from Apple.

      Well, it would be very useful making music and graphics, just off of the frustration I've felt with both of those ventures and a lack of touchscreen. But no, I just feel hate the disconnect between gestures and the screen: I always fumble them, to the point where the only "gesture" I have is scrolling. I should also point out that I only have one computer, not one for dev and one for play, so I really want a touchscreen and a keyboard.
