If you'd like a full-fledged laptop with all of the benefits of a multi-touch display, take a look at the Inspiron 15 5000 Series Touch from Dell. Not only does it feature a new Broadwell CPU and loads of memory, but using coupon code "4S79F2CJG$974M" during checkout will drop your subtotal to just $699.99—$250 off the sticker price.
Inside, this configuration has a fifth-generation dual-core Intel Core i7 processor, integrated Intel HD Graphics, 8GB of RAM, a 1TB hard drive, a DVD burner, Bluetooth 4.0, and 802.11b/g/n/ac Wi-Fi support. As for the 15.6-inch multi-touch display, it also benefits from LED backlighting and a full HD resolution of 1,920 by 1,080.
While the touch screen is a fantastic feature, it doesn't come at the expense of the traditional input devices. The touchpad is large and precise, allowing for easy navigation wherever you are. And the keyboard? Not only is it spill-resistant, but it also offers a full number pad for quick data entry. Truly, you're getting the best of both worlds in this device.
If you're a frequent traveler, this model has a lot to offer. While it's on the heavy side at roughly 4.9 pounds, it makes up for that with power and flexibility. With the included four-cell 40WHr battery, you can get up to seven hours on a single charge. Even better, it's removable. If you're going to be away from your desk for long periods, you can extend your computing experience by bringing a spare. And since it's less than an inch thick, it will comfortably fit in most cases and luggage.
