We are moving to a touch world, your average monitor in a year or two will be touch sensitive. People will go back and forth between keyboard/touchpad(or mouse) and the touchscreen.

Totally disagree, as Steve Jobs said last year when he showed the new Macbook Airs, Apple won't do a touchscreen laptop/desktop because your arms ache after a few minutes.
Having used an HP touchscreen machine for a few hours, I can agree, who wants to sit there with your arms stretched out like a zombie all day, especially at work.
Touch is great on tablets/mobiles, it won't reach the desktop though.
