My whole desk setup now easily fits into a backpack and I can take it anywhere

My laptop easily fits in a backpack. Hell I can fit TWO laptops in my backpack.

I carry two laptops in my work bag regularly, a 15" and 14"

Laptop is hardly a whole desk setup though. AR is potentially going to be much better than using clunky laptops.

Not if they can't figure out the peripherals. The only thing missing with the laptop is the dual display. Having to drag around a whole keyboard, mouse, PC, and power bank like that is a lateral move at best. You could probably do what he's doing with a laptop and it would still be just as if not more compact.
