Laptops Vs Desktops Part 1

It's a two parter yet again, this is a topic that every computer helper faces once in a while. What is better a laptop or a desktop? Which should I choose? We try to answer these simple questions in this double post. The end choice is yours, these are only our opinions, we won't take responsibilities for any of your actions.

There are two main differences between a portable laptop or a notebook and the good old stationary desktop. The two differences are pretty simple, portability and scalability or expandability. These two differences will help you decide in most cases, but these days, laptop computers can be as powerful as desktops. Their sleek design, many integrated devices – there are enough points that attract buyers besides portability.

Don't start dreaming now, because a portable computer can cost several months pay or a long time of saving – it can also cost a dime on the street! Your probably heard stories of someone being offered stolen laptops. There are a lot of happy costumers and even more people crying over what they have lost. You can forget about portability and start to be paranoid about someone coming your home and taking away your new, cool, shining laptop.

There is a lot more to say for that part, but think if you ever seen some businessman, on a train or a bus working away on the latest model laptop, none. Because these computers only contain their latest work and there are a value of week's pay for them. You should not risk carrying around expensive things like a laptop with all your irreplaceable data on it.

We hope these tips will help you decide what to choose better, but really... If you live in a little place and have only enough room for a open pizza box, plus your laptops safety is 100% - if you ever decide to travel with it somewhere. And you won't be upset when in one year, your laptop is barely breathing, outdated compared to the new models on the market and you cant upgrade it anymore.

If that wasn't enough for you to say “I'm buying a desktop” or perhaps think of getting a second had portable computer. Then you should get a laptop today, even so finish reading this post, compare laptop to a desktop more closer and think on what you might lose.
