A laptop properly configured can replace ALMOST any desktop today
For laptops/notebooks, we now have: outboard video processors and displays via USBC, we have multi-gig NVME drives for maindrives, multi gig SATA SSD drives for storage, 32Gig RAM, and top notch processors all around. EVERYTHING on par with what a Desktop can do.
The laptop with USBC/Thunderbolt can do everything a Desktop can do for most users, and it is often cheaper, too.
