It's not Desktops that are not going away, it's the keyboards which are still and for the foreseeable future the most efficient means of human-computer input. Not voice, not thought (which will be, expectedly, just a voice transmitted by other means) are not faster than key strokes. Swipes on the screen are debilitatingly slow and painful (crippling in the long run). Cursive handwriting is not going away either for paper diaries and similar things for the same reason: efficiency of input.
