Desktop computers are usually better than laptops this is because they store more documents/ have more memory and they do not need a charger because they stay plugged into the mains at all times when they are turned on so there is no way they can run out of charge.
Any operating system that you can run on a desktop can run on a laptop as long as the hardware requirements are met. Installation procedure is similar to the one on a desktop. This applies to Windows, Linux and Mac
Any computer (desktop or laptop) can run Java.
Basically, a laptop is designed to be portable, and can run off an internal battery until the battery goes flat. A desktop is designed to sit on a desk, table, workstation, etc, and is not meant to be portable. Unlike the more compact laptop, the desktop usually has an external monitor, keyboard and mouse, and is unlikely to have an internal battery. Both the laptop and desktop can be run off the mains.
most desktop gaming play on a laptop if you have a laptop nice enough to run them, but there are no games made specifically for laptops
Any laptop or desktop shou;d work as long as its not full of viruses or porn ;D
I have a p6110f desktop by HP ($499) and an NV52 laptop by Gateway ($499). I thought I would run a little test by checking how fast each can copy a file from the local disc C:/ to the desktop. NV52 20~30 mbps. p6110f 80~120 mpbs. Yes the desktop is faster even though the price is the same but the laptop offers mobility.
Ubuntu Desktop Edition can be run on both desktops and laptops. Ubuntu has power management features as well.
It depends on the type of laptop you have.
A desktop processor is a processor that has been optimized for maximum performance on the desktop, for tasks such as playing video games or editing video. This is as opposed to a laptop / mobile processor, which is optimized to provide longer battery life and run cooler.
Mac software can only run on an Apple Mac computer either a laptop (such as the MacBook) or desktop (such as the iMac).
he will escape your laptop/computer and run wild
No. Providing they meet the system requirements and run the same operating system, any program that can be run on a desktop can be run on a laptop and vice versa.
