Then I guess my Linux notebook is not a "personal computer" :-)

When it's on the network (i.e. most of the time) I can work on it from
a system with a full blown keyboard and a 21" monitor.

But even when it isn't, I usually have multiple sessions as different
users, either in different virtual consoles or in X + a virtual window
manager.
