Where is the scroll lock on dell laptop?
The scroll lock key is located usually on the keyboard, mainly somewhere on the top or lower right.
Original Answer: (from wikipedia)
The Scroll Lock key was meant to lock all scrolling techniques, and is a remnant from the original IBM PC keyboard, though it is not used by most modern-day software. In the original design, Scroll Lock was intended to modify the behavior of the arrow keys. When the Scroll Lock mode was on, the arrow keys would scroll the contents of a text window instead of moving the cursor. In this usage, Scroll Lock is a toggling lock key like Num Lock or Caps Lock, which have a state that persists after the key is released.

How much electricity does a laptop consume compared with desktop computer?
A laptop has a battery pack and can be run on the battery for some time. It needs recharging which will use electricity but not as much as a desktop computer. The amount of power any computer will use depends on a number of factors such as the amount of time it is left on standby. You are probably better to leave the desktop on standby than to turn it off, because it could use more power to reboot all the time than when left on standby. This would only apply if you use the desktop daily or more often.
