More accurate claim: with "desktop speeds" I meant the processing power required to run a basic 2010's desktop system, including a modern browser and watching videos. ARM is pretty close there already and conversely nearly any x86 laptop today is vastly overpowered for any of those tasks.
The power that is supplied by modern desktop machines and used by heavy gamers, video editing guys, and number-crunchers is a whole another story. That market is probably settled for desktop for quite a long time.
