I don’t think I could go back to sitting on a chair stuck in one room. I don’t mind paying the extra to get a ‘good solid laptop’ I can move around with. I’d never go back to using a desktop. My laptop provides everything I need for my graphic/web design work and my gaming needs.

1GB of Ram
1.8Ghz Pentium M
Nvidia GeForce Go 6600
Only a 80gb hard-drive, considering replacing it if I find a nice 2" harddrive laptops need.
Onboard sound.

I would blindly choose a laptop, if you have laptop and a wireless internet connection i think you have the power of god

If the desktop and laptop were EXACTLY the same - I would choose the laptop. Unfortunately, laptops and desktops really cannot be compared.

If a choice given between a laptop and a desktop PC of the same price, i will choose laptop becoz laptop is portable and smaller in size .....it can easily carried over to any place

It all depends on the use.Like if i'm on the move i prefer a laptop.but otherwise i prefer to go fo for a desktop as it gives me more flexibility in terms of upgrading,etc..

It depends. If I'm always on the go, I would definitely chose laptop.

I'd prefer desktop bcos it will be more reliable and more powerful than the laptop. And for the same price u wud get a desktop which will have far more better configuration than the laptop of the same price. But if portability n mobility is required for ur proffession then no more doubts.. laptops r the best choice.

It will depend upon the situation. If I travel a lot, then I will choose a laptop, If i have a office job then I would stick with Desktop.

It can be for same money, but need not be a same configuration..
These day desktop are also becoming very small.. So i would prefer to take desktop because of its robust keyboard and high performance.. and lots of things you can add..

Desktop. Hands down. I don't like the cramped space of a laptop. Laptops are expensive to service where I fix my own desktop. Don't know where else to go with this question but I do feel strongly about it. Desktops are so much better! I hate those pointing devices built into laptops. I hate the messing with batteries. The screens are smaller and I don't think that a laptop will last ten years like my desktop has. Yes, it is time for an upgrade but still, my desktop will be working for decades into the future. Heck I have an Apple IIe and play with it sometimes! It is twenty three now! 8mhz and 1meg ram. I like it! But I use my PC a lot more I admit.
