No, their desktop market is growing, just not as fast as their laptop

Sorry, they are selling more desktops because of an expanding market, but
their share in that expanding market is decreasing.

Other arguments in this thread have been claiming a shrinking desktop
market. Which arguments are correct?

Both.

Desktop computers last longer nowadays before becoming obsolete for
most functions. And there are more and better alternatives to
desktop computers than there used to be.

Yep, but the alternatives are most expensive, less durable, limited in
upgrade options, and generally poorer performance than a comparable desktop.
