      They should have gone all the way- and revolutionize the whole laptop-keyboard away, with an additional touch screen, with synthetic haptic keys on demand and a background illuminated e-ink display. Add a GUI designed just for this to the whole Setup, and let it be executed by Perfectionists like apples- and they would rule the HW-Valley till kingdom come.
