Honestly, I hate touchscreen laptops and two-in-one devices. I wonder if I can just turn off the touch capability of this display.

I like the fact that you can use it as a drawing tablet. But I've never understood why anyone would want to touch screen laptop. Microsoft has already proven people don't want that, get companies still make them.

I got my thinkpad with touch screen. The nipple is a bit shitty and the touchpad stops working unless its in optimal hand humidity conditions. Touchscreen just works and its good when someone else is pointing at your screen.
