mala Posted September 13 Report Share Posted September 13 I can't stand laptops. I just can't see myself schleping that thing around. There's no need in my situation. I have comps at school, if I had a job where I need a comp I'm sure there be one, and I have a comp at home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mala Posted September 13 Report Share Posted September 13 Oh, forgot to mention the finger mouse thing on laptops. I just can't stand that. For future reference, can you buy a mouse to plug into a laptop? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magilicuti Posted September 14 Report Share Posted September 14 depends what you are using it for but i'm pretty sure you should just get a desktop. laptops are more money plus more expensive to upgrade. only thing laptops have is their mobility, other then that a desktop is better in every single way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
