Desktop segment is "dying" and "filled with proprietary apps"? While desktop PC is no longer common as a home entertainment device, there is no replacement for it as a workstation. It is also the only platform where the software and hardware are (at least somehow) independent. You can install custom software on SOME phones, but other than that, contemporary electronic devices just come with their proprietary software you're not allowed to touch.
