me and my family used to use a desktop and we all would share it. but later on we started using a laptop [my dads laptop lol] and later we stopped using the desktop and individually had a laptops. my dad uses his laptop for himself and me and my sister finally had our own and my brother just uses my laptop or my sisters since he doesnt do a lot of typing... with the laptop i can do a lot of things. i can use the internet anywhere i am in the house, i can carry it around with me when im going to the city or going on trips. i can write anywhere and the laptop is mine and no one elses. i dont really have to share it with 3 other people. lol. im used to the key board so i dont really have a problem with it. and all my files are in 1 place. and with the internet access me and my family can be online at the same time in the house whenever we want.

I am using a laptop. Went shopping last night, wanted a desk top because I thought it would be better. But after shopping I decided to stay with a laptop! I do take it just about everywhere I go. I like having access to whatever..whenever. I got one that allows me to download my pictures directly on my computer. This is great because I am tired of dragging out my cord and all the extra steps. I seem to be adding pictures all the time. i really wanted the wide screen! My daughter just bought a desk top and prefers it over her laptop. Reckon it just depends on the individual. Think I will be happy with my purchase!

Now,i use desktop.It's cheaper than laptop if they have the same performance. In our class,there are thirty-six girls,everyone all has a computer for theirown.But more than half have laptop.I am the one of who have desktop.To be frank,my computer performance is the best in our dorm,but cheaper.When using computer,i don't care it is laptop or desk,i only pay more attention to the speed of the internet.Good performance of the computer improve the online speed. Now i study in college?As a student most of my time i spend in my dorm and online.But after graduating from university,i would like to buy a laptop.It's more convenient for us to carry the computer everywhere.Everytime,when the summer or winter vacation comes,it's hard for me to take the computer home.there are long distance between my hometown and the city i study in.My classmates who have laptop all take their computer to home and online for whole vacation. Now i save money to buy laptop computer.

I am using a laptop which I bought six months ago. Previously I only used a desktop. Now I don't think I want to go back to using a desktop because I prefer my laptop. At first I found it difficult using the keyboard on the laptop but now I can type much faster and more accurately than I ever did on a loose keyboard with a desktop computer. I also find the touchpad easier to use and more controllable than a mouse.

I am using the laptop from the last year and i am quite comfortable with it. Although there was some problem in the starting in the beginning regarding my speed on the keyboard but later i got good practice over it either.According to me laptop is better than the desktop in the terms of the comfort as its easy to operate on the laptop for the long hours rather than the desktop and it can be taken anywhere we want to as it is compact.So for me working on the laptop is more convenient than the desktop and for most of the times i work on my laptop only rather than my desktop but one thing that is to be kept in mind is the care for the laptop as it is much delicate and need to be used carefully.

I was using desktop last three years.Now i got laptop. I like laptop because i can carry it anywhere i want and work from there. Even if i change cities its very easy to carry with me unlike desktop. so this is the major reason i love using laptop.

I use my desktop. I would like to have a laptop, but they are a lot more expensive and nowhere near as powerful.

It depends on what I would use the computer for. If it requires portability then I would go for a laptop but when it requires heavy programing, heavy gaming and multi tasking then i would go for a customized desktop.

I use a desktop PC exclusively as I cannot justify having a portable PC at this time. If laptops were as economical to buy as a desktop and were less prone to failure because everything is crammed into such a small space, I may have bought one long ago. I have never really needed to take computer with me when I traveled (although I can see that being a big advantage for students and people on the move).
