Lenovo has a bad track record with all things touch. For example, I have a w530 and the trackpad is terrible. Apple, on the other hand, has a history of well engineered touch hardware, especially the touchpad. Maybe a touch strip will be gr

Isn't that the Unix philosophy in a nutshell? Lots of small programs that only do one thing, but can be strung together? They can also be rewritten without worrying about affecting anything else.
