1.
desktop computer
A personal computer designed for stationary use on a desk, as opposed to a laptop.
A loanword from English "desktop." In Japanese, it functions both as a type of computer and as the screen workspace, just as in English. The abbreviated form デスクトップ is sometimes shortened further to just デスク in casual tech conversation, but this can be confused with the furniture meaning.
