Laptop vs. Desktop

[prettyMe!]

What are the differences, advantages, and disadvantages?

[leanne_hat]

ano ba ang pinagka iba nila?
nalilito din ako eh

[prettyMe!]

I made this thread kasi hindi ko alam ang further differences nila.
The basics lang are:

Laptops are
- handy/ portable

Desktop
- you can install more than one DVD drive (makes CD/ DVD writing/ copying easier)

So.. what else?

ɛïɜ i prefer laptop kasi un nga portable and it doesn't take up much space. just one problem: ndi ako makaburn ng DVDs.

OT: You're online, Myks!

Anyway, yun din ang prob ko with my laptop. I have to use our desktop pa to burn DVDs or kahit to copy CDs instantly.

ɛïɜ ^ haha. yea. pero ndi rin ako magtatagal. i need to study. class is in two hours.

ayoko namang magburn sa desktop namin. it's so slow. we should at least buy a new CPU if we're not replacing everything.

well. there are laptops that can burn DVDs! for example, Apple's MacBook.

Desktops tend to have more memory than laptops. :]

Laptops are portable.

haha. I really don't know..


well, if you're going to buy one.. it depends on the way you're going to use it..

Definitely laptop. BUrning DVDs on my laptop isn't a problem. It has CD/DVD combo, can read and burn cd, dvds. =)

[e.r.i.k.a.]

if only desktops don't take much space.. :p

my laptop has better specs than the ones on my desktop but i still prefer a desktop for my everyday use, it won't matter if i had it turned on for 24 hours or so. laptop is portable.. yes indeed, i only use it for school works though. trying to risk for overtime use is too much for a laptop.

desktop

- you can use it 24/7 and it could still work awesome
- the screen is much better... well, i guess its because i'm used to monitors that isn't connected to the keyboard..
- much easier typing in the keyboard...
- you can install endless of drives

- big .. heavy
- prone to dust

laptop

- portable.. light.. you can use it anywhere
- the touchpad..

- touchpad's sensitive

I prefer laptop kasi nga very handy siya.

Actually laptop works just like a desktop yun nga lang ang disadvantage nga lang nang laptop is halos lahat nang hardware niya fixed.

Hindi gaya nang desktop na kapag gusto mong i-upgrade yung size nang hard disk mo or maybe nang video card mo madali lang.

sa laptop nalang ako.

yung desktop ba same as the normal computers kaya lang mas maliit?

I think depende yan sa laptop mo. I can burn DVDs and CDs. And
mas gusto ko laptop kasi easier to use.
