Desktop or laptop?

[Senkusha]

I've used all sorts of computing devices through the years, and I prefer a desktop PC. I enjoy the larger screen space, the proper body ergonomics (complete with chair and desk), and the additional computing power (for when I work on my video game). I like the full sized keyboard, and if a part craps out, it's usually cheaper to replace it on a PC than it is on a laptop.

I only use a laptop if I have to go out of town for some reason for work (which now is never), and I really only use my smartphone for surfing videos and quick instant messaging.

Do you prefer a desktop or a laptop?

I prefer a desktop but at the moment I own a laptop and couldn't be happier.

I use my laptop, phone, or tablet. We have a desktop but I just don't use it as much. I like to lay down when I am on my devices.

Yes. I use my mobile devices and laptop when traveling be it international or domestic, and at home, but I also use my PC when I need to dump things to my hdd.. I have a 14TB WD Passport My Book HDD set up with my desktop and so when I need to dump my camera or device's SD card, I just put them in the office to dump to my desktop later on.

I also use my desktop to play music throughout our house via bluetooth, I got a USB adaptor with an antenna off Amazon for cheap, so that I could transmit music from my desktop to the bluetooth devices throughout our house, so that we don't have to worry about draining our batteries by playing from our devices.

Once we get a media server system, to wire the entire house, our setup will become more sophisticated.

I tend towards laptops in general. I do use them mostly in a solitary place, but it's nice to be able to carry it around when I really need to.

I prefer using a laptop. I haven’t used a desktop computer since I was 15. I’m team laptop all day.

I only have a laptop. I prefer being mobile with how I can work.

I've never owned a desktop. I've always had laptops. I like the mobility.

I've always had a desktop, and in the past, I had a small touchscreen laptop which I still have, though I'm not sure if it still works.
This year, I decided to go with just a laptop as my desktop is old and some parts need to be replaced. Anyways, I got a laptop a few weeks ago, and I'll be using it along with my monitor.

Also, the computer I was using to connect to the TV was bad, which was one of the reasons I opted for a laptop so I could use it there as well.

Anyway, if I didn't have the big monitor, I would never go with just a laptop, especially now that my eyesight is getting worse.
I haven't used this new setup for long yet, so I'm not sure how it will go, but I must say I prefer a PC
