What i meant was the whole setup of the desktop. I seems to me geared
towards laptops. Which isn´t a bad thing since a lot of distris might
have problems to run without cut backs on laptops.

But to me as desktop user these are not necessary.

So i asked the question if it would make sence to have two different
meta-packages geared towards their destination.

Does it make sence?
How much work would it be?
Are there real efforts?
