Do you have a laptop or a desk computer?
We are lucky and have both but I prefer the desk top one.
I thought that it would be nice to have a laptop and now we finally have one I find it not so easy as I thought with it literally on my lap and watching television at the same time.
I think it might be because I am not used to a lap top and in time will get to like it.

I have both too. But i also prefer my desktop computer. It's a lot more efficient and user-friendly. For some reason, going on the internet & typing has always been much easier on a desktop than laptop. I really only use my laptop when I'm at school or when I have to be somewhere that my desktop computer can't go. lol

I also have both, but definitely prefer the laptop. The best thing I ever got for it, though, was a lap desk. When my laptop was in my lap for too long it would get hot! I actually have a scar on my leg from the heat. The lapdesk totally fixed that problem, though. Or I guess I could just not sit on my laptop for hours at a time...nah.

I have a laptop but I miss my desk top! It ran so much faster and had so much more space. My laptop enjoys freezing and overheating. But the reason it overheats is because of the bright person who put the dang fan on the bottom of the computer! Who does that?! Anyways, other then that the laptop is nice to be able to take with me and have on my lap.

I have a desktop and will soon be getting a laptop. Then I will be more mobile and can take it to Starbucks or anywhere else that has free wi-fi.

I have both too but I hardly ever use my PC because it's quite old and I prefer my laptop because I can use it wherever and it's a lot faster and looks a lot nicer. My laptop is quite big though so it can sometimes be a chore carrying it around but it's a lot faster than my PC and looks so nice (:

Well, I got both but ever since I got my laptop I haven't really used my desktop one a lot. Its just that my desktop one is almost full with files and is rather old so its makes a lot more sense to use my laptop at home. I do use my desktop for certain things but that doesn't happen so often. I used to use my desktop for everything but kinda stop using it ever since I joined the uni and had to get a laptop so that I could do my homework for it and use it for other studies too.

I have both. I use my laptop at home and my desktop at work. I like them both for different reasons. When I'm doing creative writing, I like my laptop because I can get into a comfortable position on the sofa or at a coffee shop and just type for hours. But if I'm doing work, I like to be at my desk with a desktop computer and a full keyboard. Something about it feels more organized.

I have a desk computer and no laptop and i don't think i'll buy one soon. They have smaller screen and tend to overheat and you can't play games on laptop because usually they are slower and on top of all that they cost more than desktops for the same performance.
