I love my laptop a lot better than my desktop. I always enjoy relaxing on the bed and typing on my laptop instead of sitting in a chair all day and using the desktop. I play my fair share of games on my laptop as well. I guess I'm a little biased because of the fact that my desktop is 8 years old and my laptop has a lot more random access memory. My laptop is an all around better system than my desktop. That would explain my biased opinion I suppose.

I believe that laptops are ideal for working people who need a lot of mobility; if they are also set up with a wireless net that it is even better. I use the laptop in my room with my girlfriend when we sleep to listen to music and it is better by far then a desktop computer because it does not make loud noises and also it has a small size so it does not take much of the room. You can play games, even sophisticated graphics games, but i wouldn't recommend it due to the fact that laptops tend to overheat when they are extra solicited very hard.

Desktop computers are ideal for people who don't need mobility and for people who love to play sophisticated games (high graphics games especially).

Thats a very good explanation for you. thats correct, right thing for the right people.

I have both a laptop and a desktop. But then my husband and I drive a truck cross country for a living and the laptop is my only computer and internet access when we are on the road. It allows us to keep in touch with family and friends, keep track of our loads, income, and expenses, and even helps us route our trips. Of course I do have a couple of computer games on it as well, and use it to process my digital photos. It is very handy for mobile computing.


myLot reputation of 88/100. jawaharks (298)   ranked 1,249 out of 8,747 in computers  4 years ago

Yes, for you laptop is the best. It is the best thing for mobility. But i use to play games for hours and it also gets more heat. thanks for your comment.

You need to know the advantage and disadvantage for both laptop and desktop computers.Desktop computers are cheap and comes up better processor speed and suitable graphic card usually.But laptops are costly especially the one works fast where we get to get play games like counter strike on it.Laptops are mobile where we can bring it anywhere and receive wireless internet in a wifi area.Laptops consume less electricity.But bad things about them is that the repair or upgrade is too costly.Unless like desktop computers we can buy the hard disk at the computer shop and fix it ourself.Laptops have difficult keyboard which is flat and use touch pad to control and not using mouse like desktop computer.At last I leave it to you to choose according to the information I gave.

I prefer laptop and it is more mobility. If you want to playing game better you get Playstation for me it is more convenient because some games requires you to upgrade hardware than it is cost you.


myLot reputation of 88/100. jawaharks (298)   ranked 1,249 out of 8,747 in computers  4 years ago

playstation is more costly than an hardware upgrade. but playing experience is nice in playstation. thanks.

i'm using a laptop right now and i agree with what you've said. i also prefer using a desktop if i'm gonna be using it for long hours and for playing online games as well lol the advantage of desktop is that you can change or upgrade any parts of it whenever you like it but the disadvantage of this was it takes more space rather than the laptop. one thing that i hate about laptops is that if i wanna upgrade something in it, it only depends if it can be upgraded or not. i'm not that sure if the processor of the laptop can be changed though


myLot reputation of 88/100. jawaharks (298)   ranked 1,249 out of 8,747 in computers  4 years ago

what your saying is exactly right. upgrading in laptop is not easy. and i dont know about the processors in laptops exactly. thanks for your comment.

A Desktop is Bigger & has more Space for a large Hardrive, Motherboard, Cd Rom &
Dvd Rom, Power Supply & a Fan(s) to keep the Processor Cool. Plus You get to
Hook the Computer to a big Monitor if You like. A Laptop is Portable & can do
much Work on the Go & it can do almost as much as a Desktop & a Good Thing to
Own & have All that Technology in a Smaller Package that fits under Your Arm
or in a Briefcase. Im a Fan of a Desktop & I like My Apple Laptop Very Much to
If You have some Extra Cash Buy a Laptop, Their Lots of Fun.


myLot reputation of 88/100. jawaharks (298)   ranked 1,249 out of 8,747 in computers  4 years ago

laptop is portable and contains all that was in desktop. but costly than desktop. upgradation is also costly. thanks for your comment.
