I've never used a desktop as my primary computer. My first real computer was a laptop, in 1992. There are a lot fewer reasons to prefer a desktop now than there were then. I would stick with laptops even if I didn't travel with my computer, just so I could use it on the couch.
I'm not an average user. I'm a programmer, and an occasional gamer. I have a laptop with a fast CPU, real graphics chip and high-resolution screen. Bought refurbished, it was still probably twice as much money as the average user spends on a computer.
