Mobility is the number 1 benefit. You can take it anywhere and its great now how many buildings and even open areas are WIFI so you can get on the internet pretty much anywhere nowadays.

They are much better for certain professions is not all. Laptops can be more personalized to certain professions or general likes with different kinds of programs or features. Like mentioned before, you can work at one place with your laptop and then pack it up and take it to a meeting or something. Good features, great portability.

Much better screen resolution. Laptops have LCD screens so graphics are higher quality. They are chipping away at the desktop benefits as well with wireless mouse, keyboard and even bigger/dual screen capabilities.

Netbook computers are designed strictly for internet usage and do not have hard drives or other software. If you need to save information or use software such as office tools, you need a laptop.

Is a desktop computer more powerful than a PC?

in a word yes. Laptops and desktops of similar type are basically different that the CPU in a laptop is generally smaller and specifically designed as (mobile). The desktop has better airflow and better heat dissipation. To be mobile. ie: a laptop there will always be tradeoffs.That said it doesnt make much difference to the average user as both are faster than we can input. However no laptop regardless of the hye is a true gaming platform.......they just get too hot. The graphics card can never keep up with the latest and greatest as it is not swappable. Heavy routines as rendering in 3D large filters in Photoshop etc all suffer from the tradeoffs to be portable.

15.4 vs 15.6 laptop screen Why are there two different laptop screen sizes on market?

No much of the difference, It all depends on the LCD panel that the manufacturer decides to use. Just like there are all different laptop keyboard designs or all different laptop casing designs. One is meant to be wide screen the other is meant to copy a desktop monitor. No real difference!

AMD Turion 64 X2 vs AMD Athlon 64 X2 I am buying a laptop both have the same specifications but different processors which should I buy?

The Turion series is designed for laptops, and thus consumes less power while producing less heat, the Athlon series is a desktop class processor, and thus consumes more power and produces more heat. For a laptop, I would recommend the Turion, but the Athlon will be slightly faster at the expense of very poor battery life.

What are the benefits of buying a desktop vs. a laptop?

Desktops tend to be cheaper. They also have the ability to handle more power such as visual effects and storage. Also one of the bigger, more obvious differences is your choice of screen sizes are much larger and more optional if you have a desktop. not to mention how you really can't drop or break a desktop since it's stationary. I went thru 2 laptops that met their maker by way of physical "woops" damage that I switched back to PC Maybe not equipment, but ingredients and spices. High quality at low prices. check out www.athenfoods.com Try www.chef2chef.net look for failed resturant businesses that are selling their equipment. sometimes you can get almost new refrigerators, etc. for a bargain price, especially, if you haul it away. i personaly do not have any of the equipment nor want any. look in the penny saver, etc. Contact Steve
