Not just you. Since I started travelling frequently between countries a few years ago, I only use laptops due to their ease of mobility. It pissed me off at first, but soon after my desktop died I never looked back. Almost everything portable now: Laptop, 2.5" external hard drives, USB tvtuners, etc.
I've learned I used to buy things a lot more powerful than I would ever need (since I rarely game), so I prefer to save my money to something else.
I also noticed how much unnecessary stuff I used to have (and carry around). I do miss having a desktop though, but when I decide to buy one, it will most likely be a cheap media center connected to a nice TV and what not.
