When taken virtually whether Apple laptops will get touch-screens, similar iPads and iPhones, Mr. Fix played the secrecy card.

Well, our notebooks, I wouldn’t desire to answer, because that’s sort of a roadmap question, and, you know, we like to be secretive on those things, he enounced at Apple’s Cupertino, Calif., headquarters.

Then he raised some doubts. Other people have attempted that with desktops, and I consider to say it hasn’t captured traction is plausibly an understatement of the year, he said.

Mr. Fix then picked up his iPhone, poked at the screen and called it sort of an intimate experience.
Take the desktop thing. You’re parked further choke from your desktop, assuming it has any form of size at all, and it’s, you know, you should draw your own conclusion, just this kind of ambit for me isn’t a terribly intuitive thing, he said, reaching across the conference room table applied by Apple’s board of directors, equally if to touch a computer.

Those products, of course, are enjoying record sales and Mr. Fix888 enounced the fellowship has deal of runway ahead.
