    My understanding is that you will be penalized in Mobile search only and not Laptop/Desktop searches. I wish Google would be more clear on this though. All I hear is everyone will be penalized.

    This new Mobile responsive rollout on April 21st is for Mobile search. If your site is not mobile responsive you will just get passed up by your competitors who are mobile friendly. And it's on a page to page basis not the whole site.
    I recently fixed my site by changing to a responsive theme. Also the page load speed is a factor. Google's searches are 50% mobile now and user want fast loading sites.
