Not until there’s something as accurate as a mouse, which likely won’t happen until there’s some kind of mind reading device (don’t laugh, it’s not as sci-fi as you might think: http://voices.yahoo.com/researchers-game-controller-mind-read-passwords-11714576.html). Try drawing with those motion apps, or browsing link-heavy sites on a touch screen. There are limits to how precise those technologies can be.

Or editing a TV show on a computer. I’d seriously wouldn’t want to play a video game for 10 hours with my fingers. Could these be overcomed?

The importance of mouse can never obsolete even if it is replaced by something new because the mouse would remain the root of development. Nice article Peter.
