Best Answer

A laptop would be more suitable because it can handle a bigger load than a minicomputer can. Remember networks are computers that work together, and the main computer will organize the computers and process the information from the computers. Everything will go through the main computer. In other words, you will be better off with a laptop rather then a minicomputer.
