  How about a "Laptop" Layout.
  
  - Typically on a laptop you have a lot of horizontal space, not much vertical - Having the default menu on the left is a good idea for that (at least for languages that read left to right)
  - A top "global menu" might get in the way here, as not all programs have a menu (web browsers hide it be default or have an alternative system, spotify, discord etc all go without)
  - Using an Icon style task switcher to make good use of the horizontal space and keep battery life
  - As laptops might be touch friendlier, having larger icons on the desktop and task manager and maybe the Application Dashboard too
