Your probably right. The only reason I am leaning toward a laptop at all is that I plan to do a fair bit of traveling.
Traveling with a desktop isn't out of the question though. I have done it several times before. Plus, I could get a pair of Titan X, and I think for the price v performance, it's the way to go, especially in the long run.
You get much better cooling and much better hardware with a desktop, but travelling is of course an important consideration. Remember that GPU is just as important as CPU when it comes to modern 3d rendering and Blender is able to use it effectively.
