I just hope Apple doesn't go too far with this. I got a little worried when the desktop trackpad came out with multi-touch gestures and an option to buy it instead of a mouse. At first I thought it was pure gimmick, but realize it's handy for navigating around the finder. But, my worry that the Finder was getting too iOS-like is still here. Creative professionals not only need a mouse, they need a precision one to get precision work done. Every step Apple makes in this direction worries me.
Gone are the days of buying a mid-line tower and making it last forever with upgrades. I've given up my dream of a plain old Mac computer (something between the iMac/Mac mini and a Mac Pro) that strikes a balance between the all-in-one closed thing and the pro features us creatives really need.
