I think I won't buy a desktop again

hi,youless,i agree with you that the desktop use a lot of space and the laptop is very convenience and can carry it to anywhere i wish to.i have a planed to buy a laptop in the end of this year,but have a question, how to solve the intenet connection ? i had heard that to be bought a wirness line card is very experience, and the fee of on lines is also very high,i'm afraid i have money to buy a laptop but no any money to pay for the on line fee.could you share your experience for use laptop? how much money should be pay once a month? good luck!

Good morning, youless. I agree with you that a laptop is more convenient and saves a lot more space. What's more, it is much cheaper now than it used to. You can get a very good one with around 5000 RMB for a good brand. I have not had a desktop yet. Still I like my laptop as it is portable and I can carry it anywhere I wish to. It is a hard job that you have been doing recently cleaning the house. I can see how much time you have to spend on it making it nice and clean and reorganize the furniture the way you desire to. Good job. Have a good day, youless.

I agree with you youless, the desktop is clumsy with a big cpu. Though I had replaced the monitor with the flat LCD screen, it still seems very much clumsy if to compare with the handy and light laptop. After purchasing my first laptop I seldom use my desktop anymore, but it’s still useful to me. I have a good quality old model ribbon printer which I’m still quite dependent on it. I could fix the printer to the desktop only, for the port of the laptop is too small for the cable to fix in. I have to print out the monthly report for my part time jobs by the end of every month. I don’t want to waste extra money to get another new printer for my laptop as I use the printer once in a month only. For the sake of convenient my hubby had fixed 4 wheels to the computer desk to make it much easier to move. one desktop is too much for me at the moment, so definitely I won't buy another one anymore Happy posting and take care!

i think desktops are only relevant / useful at workplace or schools.. but for home or personal use.. almost no one uses desktops anymore... people prefer to be 'mobile'.. use the computer wherever it is convenient to them - on the bed, at the dinner table, on the porch.. you can pick your favourite spot.. but i think the desktop will only totally become obsolete - for offices or schools, it is more secured to have desktops because no one can carry and steal them home...

Ya thats good decision when you are opting for another pc and replacing current Desktop PC. but first you should consider about budget and smart choice of Laptop. many companies provide laptop. you should look feature fo Laptop more ram, more storage capacity and top most feature is Bettery life, Processor capacity and RAM, wifi technology.

Though the portable one is more convenient to use, i also like desktop for the reasons of higher cost performance and preferable view.How difficult to move when you take a 22 inch wide-screen laptop.So, buy a desktop for more comfortable life

I agree with you to an extent. I love having my laptop but I do think that I want a desktop so that I have something that will last a long time. Desktops do last longer overall than laptops. But I would only use the desktop for games or something like that and I would get a desktop that is more compact.

Would love to buy a laptop computer. As you say, the desktop is heavy and clunky and hard to move. In the past three years, four computers have crashed and all have been desktop. They are not very reliable. Plus, our local Walmart sells laptops for $299 US at Christmas. That's less than I paid for two of my last brand new computers. Seems a better deal.

For me, I use Laptop all my life... I got it since it was too expensive and now it is really cheap to get an extra one ... :). however, laptop is still expensive to fix and parts tho... so you have to very careful with it. I still love Laptop and never think to get a desktop at all. Desktop is hard to move around.

I feel the same way about using a desktop, and I don't plan on buying one again. My old computer was a desktop and it broke down some time ago. At first I thought about buying a new desktop, but I changed my mind when I went to shop. The laptops were less expensive than I expected and I decided to buy a laptop instead of a new desktop. I definately don't regret that decision, because I love my laptop, and I find it much more convenient than a desktop. The only time I miss my old desktop is when I want to play games on my computer. My old computer was better at that, but I prefer my laptop in other situations.

Desktop computer a lot consume more power than laptop. And, I need the better cooler fan for the desktop. Probably I would buy a laptop with LCD 15", but I must test it.

Not because I dislike desktop I would have one laptop this month. But to be frank desk top is more user friendly.

i dont like a desk top either, they often become too cumbersome to carry around and that could cause problems of not being able to get them fixe properly and police asking you for the receipt of pyurchase and all that, i like a laptop because it is easier to carry around and use

ofcourse, you should go for the laptop my friend. it definitely makes a lot of sense.

I agree with you here, desktop is just there and you cant bring it around and it is more conviniet to get a laptop since you can bring it around and use it at work or at college.Laptops now are cheaper and better than before as well

I am also planning to buy a laptop since its now affordable and a very portable device. But I do admit that in terms of durability, the desktop computer is still far more durable than the laptop, but with our fast paced life nowadays, it is really much better to maintain a laptop than a desktop, and of course, it saves a lot in space too.

I notise with most young people they prefer to use laptop, but with me, desktop seems to be a fixed pieve of equipment attached to the desk. Otherwise, I would feel something is missing. That is only my personal impression, and the other thing is the screen could be a bit larger. I admit for its size, desktop could be a hindrance for a small room.

I think i will still keep a desktop in my room. As both of desktop and laptop have its advantage and disadvantage. The reason i like destop is becasue you can have a bigger screen, much bigger than the laptop. It works good when you watch a moive online. hehe. It's true that laptop is easier to carry and stock. But i still want to have a desktop.

I was so attached to my desktop and I wouldn't exchange it for the world, but when my computer "crashed" apparently due to old age, my husband convinced me to buy a laptop instead. That's when my love affair with my laptop started. Indeed a laptop is more convenient, more stylish and more "in tune" with the needs of people like us.

hi friend.. yeah i agee with you that desktop is so heavier and laptop is portable.and now a days laptop is very cheap.but laptop is good for those who are doing less work in front of it.i think desktop is better for the persons who doing more works.like professionals etc.. happy mylottting
