The actual nvidia press release engadget worked off of doesn't use the word desktop at all, it looks like that was engadget's doing.
NVIDIA announced today that it plans to build high-performance ARM® based CPU cores, designed to support future products ranging from personal computers and servers to workstations and supercomputers.
