I disagree with you. You and I are not the average user. The average user is a computer noob who doesn't want to hassle with cords and monitors. The all in one computers will be the wave of the future. And they will be touchscreens.

I didn't buy my HP touchscreen because I wanted a touchscreen; I bought it because I wanted an all in one model to side on the side of my desk just to run my email. I would watch my email roll in in the corner of my eye, and the touch screen was great for quickly deleting emails I didn't need. I have three monitors now on my main PC so the touch screen is no longer in the office with me, but the wife and kid still use it daily.

Clearly they are making Win8 so that it will be more friendly to touch screens.
