I'm wondering with the (permanent?) switch to work from home if laptop sales will go down.
I've replaced both my personal and work laptops with System76 Meerkat mini PCs both running stock Unbuntu using Regolith for the desktop environment (https://system76.com/desktops/meerkat). They are stacked on top of each other on my desk and take up next to no space.
I work from home (and have since 1999) and don't travel for work (since Covid) so I have no need for laptops now. I have a larger monitor and for now I'm using an old USB switcher to share a wireless connection for my keyboard and mouse and use the input switcher on my monitor to switch between machines. In the future I may get an integrated hdmi/usb switch.
Has anyone else abandoned their laptops in favor of desktop/mini PCs?
