Description

When talking about a built-in display, it makes more sense to show a laptop display than a desktop display. But we currently don't have a great semantic way to do that; we can either use computer-laptop to represent its display (though it's not guaranteed to show a display), or we can use video-display to show a display… which isn't guaranteed to be (and isn't currently) a laptop.
