a) a midrange desktop gives you far better performance for the same $$$.
b) laptops will always be short on high-end performance due to heat dissipation issues
c) the small, low consumption budget conscious desktop is called the nettop, but these have not had the time to become mainstream yet
d) as for extendability, while you can go the usb route, it's more expensive and leaves you with a forest of cables.
