RE: I've been a build-my-own guy for quite some time

The keyboard doesn't have to be usable, nor even the screen, but that is certainly a bonus when on the go, that they are perfectly adequate to the task.
I suggest if you want the desktop look-n-feel that you then buy a nice keyboard and even a nice monitor and hook them up to the laptop because it is equal to the task
I only think that maybe if you want UHD type gazillion pixel monitors that you may then need a desktop with a nice video card, but I don't know as I only have an 1920x1080 IPS monitor and it works great with HDMI laptops.
