How much longer till touch screens and vr, etc replace the traditional keyboard/mouse?

I say 10 years we will see a lot less and 20-30 years will have virtual screens that project in the air that you can interact with

You could have a bunch of virtual desktops that you can swipe around with your hands or maybe a full 360 workspace all around you
Gaming would actually be a lot more immersive and a good workout
Etc

Yeah, not gonna happen that fast


There is a precise nature and tactile feedback from a keyboard/mouse or a controller, why do you think people like mechanical keyboards? Mechanical switches are definitely a much OLDER technology, there are much more sophisticated PCB switches and even laser keyboards but they do not provide the same tactile feedback

Multiple desktops that you can swipe through?

Linux has had this for years.

This is the year of the Linux desktop!
