If your boss ask to get list of laptops which are managed by SMS or SCCM.what do you do and how do you get that. Right click on computer and go to resource explorer to identify the computer is Laptop or Desktop ?

You can identify if the computer is Laptop or Desktop based on its chassis Types.

Below is the collection to list all the computers which are laptops which fall in above Chassis type. All these values are from SQL table called SMS_G_System_SYSTEM_ENCLOSURE .If you are looking to create SCCM report,you can create using Views(v_GS_SYSTEM_ENCLOSURE).

You can also replace the values with Desktop computers or servers also you can use joins to club these with AD groups for deploying the applications based on this.

select SMS_R_System.ResourceId, SMS_R_System.ResourceType, SMS_R_System.Name, SMS_R_System.SMSUniqueIdentifier, SMS_R_System.ResourceDomainORWorkgroup, SMS_R_System.Client from  SMS_R_System inner join SMS_G_System_SYSTEM_ENCLOSURE on SMS_G_System_SYSTEM_ENCLOSURE.ResourceID = SMS_R_System.ResourceId where SMS_G_System_SYSTEM_ENCLOSURE.ChassisTypes in ( "8", "9", "10", "11", "12", "14", "18", "21","30","31","32" )
