Q: Is the touchscreen optional?

A: Thanks for your question, Person.

The Satellite C-Series laptops are primarily designed for basic tasks like surfing the web, updating social media, online banking, etc. For laptops that are more robust and better for things like mid-level gaming see the Toshiba Satellite Radius 15 laptops like this one: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/toshiba-satellite-radius-2-in-1-15-6-touch-screen-laptop-intel-core-i5-8gb-memory-750gb-hard-drive-brushed-metal/4203500.p?id=1219706548682&skuId=4203500
