Hey friends my parents are going to buy me a computer.
But i m a bit confused between laptop and desktop.
If i go for LAPTOP then it would be too expensive as the configuration i require is too costly.
And if i go for DESKTOP then it is somewhat oldfashioned and LAPTOP is more mobile and portal.
So i m a bit confused.
Which one should i buy?

It depends for what do you want to use that computer. If you want it for games.. than use a desktop.. if you want for internet and documents.. buy a laptop. If you want to have mobility and games.. that might be a performant laptop.. wich is more expensive.

The topic starter is Indian - from Mumbai .
getting a good mobile internet connection
is very difficult in India . we have just
a few wi-fi hotspots and wimax is yet to
be implemented . we have to depend on GPRS
thru a cellphone modem which is very slow ...

Hey it depends on your needs.....if you travel a lot and need your comp to bewith you all thetime then go for laptop...but if the scenario is other way then go got a desktop coz the cost will be reduced a lot and you will be able to get higher configuration on that very cost....

Personally I would prefer a laptop. I have only one computer, and chose a laptop, that way I can take it places with me if I need to. I can even sit here on the couch with it in my lap. =)
But if you can't afford a laptop, go for the desktop.
