I did the same for desktops too. I finally retired the last desktop I built that was 12 years old. It could still do most games, but it was loud, power hungry, and annoying. I've replaced it with a Steam Deck and a Steam Dock, and at some point I might build a proper replacement gaming / workstation, but not any time soon. For personal use, most of what I want to do is possible on a laptop now. I really don't feel as much need for a desktop as I once did. I still use a "dock" and a mechanical keyboard when I'm not on the go, though. With the exception of the Steam Deck, I don't use Linux, though. The reason I have the Thinkpads is they work perfectly in FreeBSD & OpenBSD "out of the box". The Dell is running Windows for doing automotive tuning.
