Interesting that you noted "desktops."
I used to be a big gamer when I was younger and went through a phase of having two "gaming laptops" (really more portable desktops...those things could fry your nuts if you put it on your lap). I now have a massive Origin desktop box that weighs ~100lbs and is an absolute beast. However as I get older, I'm realizing that I'd rather have that square footage for other home things and instead switch to a gaming laptop since they are much nicer and smaller now.
I wonder if gaming laptops of the near future will be able to sufficiently handle VR systems like the Rift. Having a truly portable VR experience like that is a very different scenario than being bound to sitting at a desk.
Sure it might be clunky at first, but you can technically strap the laptop to a harness of some sort and have mobile VR. You can't do that with a desktop.
