Laptop or Desktop Computer?

July 3, 2008 6:28am CST
So, It was my birthday last week and not I'm 18 (congratulations to me) on my birthday i got a Laptop aswell as many other things. I have been using my laptop constantly taking it everywhere with me playing on it all the time surfing the internet playing games etc etc and today i realized i haven't touched my PC since i got this laptop. Which made me think do i like my Laptop more then my PC? I try to think about it but i really cannot decide both have their advantages and disadvantages. Which brings me to the argument of... Which do you prefer Laptops Or Desktop Computer?

Well happy belated birthday! I like desktop computers much better. It has been my expierence that laptops have more problems. We have a laptop right now and all three USB plug ins do not work. It needs a new battery because if you take it off the charger it will die in 1 or 2 minutes. Next time we get a computer we are definently getting a desktop!

Unfortuanetly I have no idea...i think it just happens over time that the battery starts to die. It lasted for a couple of years before it did die though.

it really depends. if you are in college, laptops all the way. otherwise, i prefer desktops at home. you wont be wearing out the laptop battery when using a desktop and usually desktops are more powerful than a laptop. the monitors are usually bigger too so i think thats a plus. is the reason why you like your laptop more is because your PC is old and obsolete?

I guess what you said at the end was true, my PC is slower then my laptop, but only because it is full of rubbish and almost full, I want to build another PC later this year a very powerful and fast one. But its not just that, I can be anywhere and be on my laptop, I don't have to get out of bed to go on the PC I an just go on the laptop in bed (Lazy I know but that just me for you) Also my laptop has vista which is pretty cool i don't see why people hate vista so much, there are some problems, but it is very user friendly a lot more then XP.

Actually i think desktop is better becuase you can change the board and hard disks and rams and more but at laptop you can not.
