Desktop.

I think [stereo]typically, gamers prefer desktops, and "haiku-writing motherfuckers" (-- Denis Leary) prefer laptops

Heh I brought my laptop to certain classes. Not math/computer/science classes, but classes like anthropology, where you have to write a LOT (with very little meaning-per-word) were made easier by laptop.

Right now, I prefer it. Hook it up to a monitor or whatever and you can play your games. I like to have a laptop to travel with, so I can play old school NES games

Ahh...emulation
I'm a fan

I'd have to say my laptop, because I don't have to sit in one spot with it, I can lug it around (although I'm currently in sitting in the computer chair for the desktop, while on the laptop).

Definately my dekstop. Laptop processors fail in comparison.

I like to be able to have 30 windows open at once, while listening to music, designing graphics, and streaming video.

If it can't do all that while playing Battlefield 2 in between alt+tabs and level changes...it's not worth my time.

Though the laptop I am forced to use at the moment is sufficient for minor multi-tasking and cost 3 grand, my beautiful desktop beckons to me from it's dusty Thai shelf.

Mysteryhunter, that picture blows my mind.. is that how it really looks in university classes?

I prefer my laptop but my desktop at work is great as well.

Yea, they're all using macs.


My laptop is much more recent than my desktop so I prefer it. There's also the big plus of being portable, I can take it to my university and leech movies/games/music using their limitless wi-fi.

Since I already got a laptop for my portable needs, next time I buy a pc it'll be a new desktop(or an upgrade to my current desktop), better components for a lower price.

I prefer my desktop to be honest! Having the laptop is useful if I am travelling or want to work from the Cafe downstares, but if I am indoors always my PC

p.s does everyone really own both lol - GEEKS hehe

I see an Acer in there too. (4th row)

Anyway, most people around here are switching to EEE PCs. I'm gonna get one of those when they hit the second generation this summer (or if any other company actually starts bringing some competition into that sector - doesn't look like it though, at least for Europe...)



Sweet 8.9'' goodness!
