Comparing the number of smartphones, tablets and laptops to
desktops, they already are a minority. However...

If anything, the paradigm of a "workstation" is certainly not going
away. Programming, web design, business&office, CAD, animation and video
production, gaming --- those are only some of typical real world
usecases that need a large enough (or even high-end) display, a serious
keyboard, and serious processing power with an extendable amount of RAM.

None of this can be done (not seriously, anyway) on a laptop, let alone
the tablet or a phone. So there will always be a market for desktops.

HTH, :-)
