Should I buy a
Laptop or Desktop
Computer?
  By: Kellie Kameda
Going into the College of Ed it is required to buy a
laptop.
But aren’t they expensive? And wouldn’t it just be
better to get a desktop computer where it’s always
at home and cheaper?
I did some looking to see what’s better a laptop or
a desktop. Here’s what I’ve found…
What is a Laptop?

 A laptop computer is a
 small mobile computer.
 You can carry around
 because it is usually light in
 weight.
What is a Desktop?

 A desktop computer is a
 personal computer.
 Usually made for desk use
 at home or in an office.
Difference?

             Laptop                       Desktop
   Small in size               Big in size
   Battery powered             Not portable
   Light weight                Heavy in weight
   Portable entertainment      Comes with a tower that
    system                       sits on the floor under a
                                 desk.
                                Easier to repair
Features

    Both the laptop and desktop computers have the
    same features.
   Checking e-mail
   Web Surfing
   Word Processing
   Playing Music
   Photo Editing
   Computer Games
   DVD Watching
Cost

                                                 E520
Who Can Use It?

             Laptop                 Desktop

   Business People       Office Users
   College Students      Home Users
                          Students (all ages)
Decision…

 Getting a laptop or desktop depends on your preference.
 If you want a computer you can carry around with you so
 it’s there when needed get a laptop. But if you want just
 want one for home use and don’t mind not having it 24-7
 then get a desktop computer.

 For me I have no choice I need a laptop. Even if it is a bit
 more expensive. Although I would rather have a desktop
 computer, maybe I’ll do fine with a laptop for now and get
 a desktop later.
