Advantages Of Desktop Computers Versus Laptops? by bimbor(m): 2:05pm On Feb 21, 2007 Does a desktop have any advantage over a laptop? Re: Advantages Of Desktop Computers Versus Laptops? by Seun(m): 9:18am On Mar 25, 2007 1) A desktop computer tends to be cheaper than a laptop computer of similar specification 2) A desktop computer is more easy to upgrade. There's more space for new PCI cards and IDE disks to fit into. 3) Faulty accesories and components on a desktop are easy to replace, sometimes without even opening the case!

There are a few gadgets out there such as the ipad but I really don’t like touch screen stuff. I like touching and the feel of the key board and a mouse.…
