Many students wonder whether to buy a desktop or a laptop computer. Generally, you will get a faster CPU, more memory and a larger hard drive in a desktop computer. Desktops give you more value for your money.
Desktops are less expensive to maintain.
Parts for most desktops are generic and less expensive than parts for laptops which generally require the same brand parts as the laptop. Laptops are easily stolen. Laptops take up less space. If you like to sit at your desk and do other things than work on your computer, consider a laptop. A desktop machine will take up most of your desktop space.
