I have to take a neutral side on this matter, i think all have their advantages and disadvantages but in the long-run a desktop will always edge out a laptop...barely.
Average users will rather buy a desktop instead of a laptop that will perform almost as equally as the desktop but cost twice or thrice as more. Users who travel alot (including myself) as said above will want a laptop, and so many other reasons, so i think it all depends on the person and what he intends to do with the machine so atm i dont think a winner can be picked in this conversation. Performance & Portability is the main question one has to ask himself but there are now laptops that can deliver the best of both worlds.
If i could i would build a desktop at home and also buy a laptop for use in my travels but i'd probably build the desktop first.
