Windows 8 has been out for less than 3 months. A bit early to calling it a failure?
Intel have mandated touchscreens for their lastest Ultrabook spec. So all premium wintel laptops (>$999) will have touchscreens by Christmas.
This will drive down the cost where Apple customers will be asking why their macbook is the only $1000 laptop on the market without touch input. At which point Apple will announce a compatibility layer to run all one's favourite iPad apps inside OS X at WWDC 2014, along with the first macbook air with a detachable keyboard. At which point developers will marvel at the lower cost of entry - in being able to run Xcode on the same device you're targetting.
