I have a 16Gig 512 SSD Macbook pro and its faster than ever, since I have upgraded. As far as touchscreen on laptops is concerned; Steve Jobs mentioned that its not ergonomically correct. And I agree, I don't know how much long I can lift my fingers and touch the screen everytime I have to navigate. Apple has added lot of gestures on its track pad which is awesome.

I would say using laptops for long period of time is also pain in the ass.

That's why many people use external monitor, keyboard and mouse.

My wife uses her touchscreen laptop for web browsing at the couch. Using laptop at your lap is quite bad, but touch screen makes it a lot of better.

I've been using laptops exclusively for the last six years, I move around too much to go back to a Desktop computer.
