I do not believe you are forced to use the touch screen. Just don't use it. Touch screen adds a touch of weight. Same laptop touch vs non-touch is a bit heavier. I'm waiting for the new XPS 13.4 plus deal, but too new for any deals.
That's what I thought, figured just don't use it if the laptop is worth getting anyways for the price. Thanks for the response!

Perfer a laptop for a tablets use but having a full keyboard is necessary & a hard shell for protection. Also the swivel makes nice stand

This, by far. The Go has it's uses with the small size, and it has excellent build quality, but this is a more serious device for whatever task you throw at it.

This will work, but to be clear, this only disables the software response of the touchscreen. The hardware of the touchscreen is still active and drawing power causing lower battery life when compared to a non-touchscreen model.
