  That's definitely nowhere near the truth. From graphics cards, to ram, to ssd's, to processors, desktops have gotten dramatically better, and cheaper by probably 50% for the same model range. A $300 i7 from Intel is ~25 times faster than a comparable Pentium 4 processor from 2004 (and that's probably being generous to 2004 by only comparing the passmark straight up). $200 high quality SSD's alone invalidate the notion that desktops haven't improved.
