In my opinion, the only reason to use a laptop is if you need portability - there's no other possible advantage.
And for what you'll pay for a 'top of the line laptop', you'll get a Ferrari-level desktop pc.
But, as I said, that's my opinion :--))

Subject: [PCBUILD] Desktop vs Laptop ?
Need some advice / suggestions as to the advantages / disadvantages of replacing
a 6 year old desktop with a top of the line laptop.
Now have a 17 inch crt moniter, tower with floppy, CDR , CD/ DVD player, 2
harddrives, excellent sound system , a scanner & printer.
Do not play games, other than Solitary and Free Cell. Use scanner weekly,
printer many times a day.
Save lots of pictures and music; 100 + or - emails a day, and surf the web
several times a day.
What do you knowledgable people suggest, a laptop, or another desktop, and
advantages or disadvantages I should know about for my mentioned use, please?
Thanks, John
