&quot;Less stuff to carry around.&quot;<p>You&#x27;re still going to have to carry around a keyboard, mouse, cables, and probably a screen. It&#x27;s going to be far, far easier to do that with a laptop&#x2F;surface, or even a tablet, than with their setup.<p>&quot;I mean why bother having a desktop or laptop if you can use your personal device, plug it into different things and get the full experience as if you had a laptop or desktop?&quot;<p>A desktop is going to have more power, a laptop is going to have a form factor that&#x27;s much more convenient to carry around, and more battery.
