Note
A plain -s plural, and it belongs only to the noun. Laptop also works as an adjective meaning designed for use on a lap, but English adjectives take no plural, so a laptop desk becomes laptop desks, never laptops desks. The noun is itself short for laptop computer, and the full phrase pluralizes on its last word: laptop computers.
