Seems like a good laptop can do most anything a desktop can nowadays. The only real advantage to a desktop that I can see is a bigger monitor size. I do like my 21" screen on my desktop at home, but I'm setting right here next to it, and still using my laptop with it's 17" screen. In fact I seldom even fire up my desktop anymore, unless I happen to leave my laptop at work.
I did however pop for a top of the line external hard drive that I plug into my laptop almost all the time, and keep nearly all my files on it.

I just got a laptop and I love it. I got one that had the 10-key on the keyboard, so it made it a little wider and because of that I am able to have a 17" screen!!

I just had to go buy the wireless keyboard and mouse....that stupid little touch scroll mouse thingy was driving me NUTS!!

I have the same thing, but I only bought a wireless mouse. I dont have a problem with the laptop keyboard, except for the right hand shift key being smaller than normal because of the 10-key. That took a little getting used to, but it doesnt bother me anymore.

I think you should do what you want to do and not let anyone influence your decision.
