Comment 8 for bug 1173767

I guess this depends a bit on how you interpret "desktop". Could be the thing that's the "opposite" of a laptop, could be the thing that shows your wallpaper below all windows, could be your "desktop environment".

I see a similar problem with "System", to be honest, so I'm not sure that's really an improvement.

The main issue though is that basically it's up to app-devs and distributors what ends up in that dialog, so it's generally impossible to find a description that fits all. My conclusion would be to leave it as is, as that also doesn't create work for translators. Could you live with that?
