$AAPL Brings Touchscreen to First OLED MacBook Pro, Reversing Long-Standing Stance on Touch Laptops
Apple ($AAPL) is introducing a touchscreen display to its first OLED MacBook Pro, reversing a long-held company stance after co-founder Steve Jobs previously described touchscreen laptops as “ergonomically terrible.”
The shift also contrasts with earlier remarks from CEO Tim Cook, who once compared combining a tablet and a laptop to merging a toaster and a refrigerator, as $AAPL prepares to position the new touchscreen model at a premium price point.
