What is your favourite? What do you prefer? Why do you prefer it? Do you think society would be as it is now if we didn't have computres/laptops? What are your favourite features of laptops and computrs. Do you think that keyboards are annoying or the keyboards on laptops are annoying? What would you say was the best feature on a computer or a laptop is and why? Do you think that computres and laptops are expensive? Do you think over the years, laptops and computers have gone more expensive or more cheaper? Do you think that technology in temrs of better computres will be build in the near future? Tell me what you think! ^.^

i have both lucky me , i find my desktop useful when processing power is needed i.e. games, large images as i only have a netbook for a laptop (msi wind), i mainly use my desktop at home and take my laptop to uni with me, its great for word processing and programming (i do computer science) also watching vids etc. i love the protability of laptops but also the powers and ugradeability of desktops

i go with desktop computers...laptop is handy and portable ...other than that there is nothing in that... but when considering desktop we can upgrade whenever we want...no need to charge it everytime we switch it on.. hence i prefer desktop...

Both are okay but for me, i prefer laptops! I've been utilizing my notebook for years and i've never encountered any problems so far.. This laptop was a birthday preent from my hubby three years ago and though it's an old school laptop, i still don't have plans of replacing it with a new one.. I love the fact that it's handy, i can bring it everywhere i go!!!

If u have a fixed kinda lifestyle( something like time-tables)then i prefer to go with Desktops.. and if ur having a very flexible lifestyle..then surely there's no substitute for a Laptop !

i would prefer a laptop because it portable, convenient for the user..but there is a remarkable price for the convenience u want.. laptop is much expensive to desktop computers..paying more for the price of the smaller components of the laptop while on the desktop computers u can purchase it any where and it dose not need to be branded or the same parts as of what u have ..like for example your desktop is IBM brand ..u can replace its spare parts to another brand of parts.. U can assemble a desktop computer because its parts are all sold in the market while laptop due to small parts only machine can assemble it.. with regards to the performance of the laptop and the desktop computer..there is no such difference between the two..u can choose a high end type of laptop that can b equal to the speed of the a desktop computer but as i said..it will b expensive .. .......................................................... i think laptops and desktop computers price would gone up ..it will become more expensive as years go by.... im open to possibilities that someday inventors can create new technology that will help lower the cost of computers and laptops..

Well purchasing a computer or laptop really depends what you are going to use it for .If you are going for performance and gaming. please s go ahead to buy a computer with high end graphic cards.

Although I like the desktop computer, I'm thinking of having a laptop instead to save electricity bills and at the same time I can do mobile computing.

I like my laptop because of it's easy portability. I spend a lot of time in bed or sat on the sofa with my illness and it's so much better for me to have a laptop to use than to have to sit at a desk. Plus you can take it with you when you travel. Also the space on the hard drives is much better than it used to be so it's no longer really inferior to a desktop PC.

today I like laptop much more because it is much more convenient. Besides, it's price is also less expensive than before. With the wireless internet connection, you can access anywhere at your home and it's so nice. And a laptop uses less electricity than a desktop. And it is also small. I love China

I prefer a desktop.It has speeds faster than laptops.also it doesn't require charging like a desktop.We can also upgrade components in a desktop.We can also add others features like sub woofer speakers for music and graphic card to play games.We can also add a lan card to surf internet at high speeds.Computers are getting cheaper day by day as new and faster processors are coming out.

PC has its own advantage and Laptop has its own. Pc is best to use in homes unless you want to take your data with you wherever you go and able to access it with Laptop.

I prefer laptop then desktop because of its portability. Laptop have wireless conectivity and also its have blue tooth. the desktop became very cheap, also the laptop prices are coming down. I am thinking of having a laptop instead to save electricity bills, laptop is portable device can take this where you want. which people are doing lot of traveling, laptop is the best for them to take laptop while traveling and do work there.

laptops always the first preference....because what you can do on computer can also be done on a laptop...but a pc cannot make it up to the advantages of a laptop

I prefer only Laptop because of its portability. If we did not have computers and laptops we would be as like lacking 10 or 15 years, but we will continue to manage.A laptop should have wireless connectivity and it should have blue tooth.I feel difficult to type in the laptop but not in regular key board of desktop.Today. the desktop became very cheap, also the laptop prices are coming down but some months after the model released.This tech.will going on increasing.
