None of my Mac computers have touch screens. as Apple seems to believe touch screens are only useful on phones and iPads.

They will come around.

I did not even realize until today that for over a year, I've been logging in to my Mac computers remotely via a Microsoft Surface device, (currently Surface Pro 2) and LogMeIn, in order to use a touch screen. I really like using the Surface touch screen to get the OS X job done quickly.

I have not tried LogMeIn on the Surface RT, but I believe it works, too.

One of the Mac computers at home is the primary server. Though it is portable, I keep it on station. Sure is nice to access it from the SP2 using a mouse OR finger.

I needed to do maintenance on the server, not do original OS X work. Nice tip, though...
