I run my laptop to my 3 screens, keyboard, mouse, headset, and webcam through a Thunderbolt 3 port replicator. 1 USB C connection connects all that so my laptop is portable when needed.
Under my desk I've got a desktop PC (deskbottom?). It runs my surveillance system and is my personal file storage. It runs headless (no video, keyboard, or mouse connections). When I need to access it, I just Remote Desktop to it.
I'll probably never need a KVM again considering port replicators and software like Mouse Without Boarders (Multiple screens, 1 mouse/keyboard).
If I ever decide to game on the desktop, my monitors have extra inputs. Extra steps switching inputs on all 3, but no biggie.
