Steve Jobs said that touchscreen desktops just don’t work, pretty much ruling out the possibility of a touchscreen iMac in the future. But he also said that tablets under ten inches don’t work, and his company is now selling the awesome iPad mini. There’s every chance, then, that we’ll see an ‘iMac touch’ someday, and it’ll fit in perfectly alongside Apple’s iOS devices — as this awesome concept commercial demonstrates.

Inspired by Apple’s recently released iPad mini commercial, this concept clip shows what an iMac touch might look like alongside Apple’s other gadgets. It also features the iPhone 5, and the new iPod nano.
