No.
I am looking at going back to desktops, actually mini-PCs, and are there any reasonable desktops?
No.
Going forward, I am looking at:
• a fanless Intel-based mini-PC with way more than 16Gb RAM running Linux, but I decided to delay this as I don't like Intel chips
• a new MacBook with Intel chip, but again I don't like Intel, and new Apple hardware means joining the Apple ecosystem, giving Apple my credit card, paying for proprietary apps, paying to publish iOS software
• wait until 2020 for a MacBook with Apple ARM chip, but again I don't wish to join the new Apple ecosystem
• a Power or some other CPU (not ARM, not Intel) running Linux, these are better but expensive
