first to address this, what kind of lifestyle do you have? are you a mobile person? or are you that type who stay at one place mostly? If you're mobile then grab a laptop with a decent specs, especially most applications today demands greater resources. and watch out for the battery :p While on the other hand if you're just at home and don't need to take your fave applications, programs, and other files then a desktop will be enough. It'll be lenghty to discuss all possible scenarios why you need to choose. But perhaps my response could help you a lot to narrow that gap. you should first answer " to what purpose do i have to use this thing?" =)

The laptop is of 40 GB. Desktop you can increase to your needs. There are advantages to laptop.You will get comfortable while using laptop as you can sit conveniently, you can work anywhere. compare study and buy. Do not repent later like me.
