Thanks!, the mobile/desktop/convergence is what I was thinking of. The linked article says that it is still under development, but in the future that is what I am looking forward to: a powerful pocket device that can plug into a monitor/keyboard/mouse in my study, into a whole wall display in our living room, and public I/O devices in libraries, offices, malls, friends' homes, etc. One can dream, right?
There is another great alternative for the longer term future: compute would be everywhere as well as public I/O devices for user interaction. Wherever you are, you could be recognized and your personal environment would be right there.
Pardon me for going far-afield here, but I am a fan of Gibson's cyberpunk sci-fi future, and I enjoy imagining what the combination of tech/society/governance/etc. will be.

Well, according to many articles [0] and videos, this is practically a reality already. Also confirmed by people not affiliated with Purism [1].
