∙ 11y agoThe advantages of having a desktop PC versus a laptop are price, ease of upgrade, and less need for accessories, to name a few. Prices of both laptops and desktops have been going down, but the price of a desktop is still lower than a laptop. Ease of upgrade comes from the fact that opening upon opening the tower, it can be seen that there is room to move or replace parts. This task is not so easy with a laptop computer. Last, the lower need for accessories, is because a desktop computer doesn't run off batteries, so it doesn't need a charging cord or extra batteries.
