Well I'll agree that it's a concept that is on the retreat these days. Personally I see mine a lot. I usually work with 3 screens. 2 linked on my main computer, and my laptop open next to it.
So I see my desktop reasonably often. Plus I often leave it if it's doing some rendering video work in the background with a nice picture the rest of the family can enjoy. (which gives me more freedom to leave it on)
