    The last time I saw someone using an iPad, they were holding it so their nose was an inch from the screen, grumbling about something or other, poking about with the other hand.

    I vote Both, but give a slight edge to the desktop.

    Only had laptops for many years, for work and lots of traveling.

    Desktop wins for power and upgrade options.

    My primary PC has always been my desktop and thats the way I voted. I like tinkering with it, and upgrading it as time passes. I like playing games and can't see buying a desktop replacement to do it. I'm more of a netbook, occasional web browsing type of laptop user. :)

    It would depend on What I am doing so I would have Both but if I had to only choose 1 I would choose a Desktop PC It carries more Potential in Upgrades of hardware than a Laptop Plus it can carry more processing power

    Both are good for one reason or the other. But I like desktops more, they can be assembled at home, they are sturdy compared to most laptops. I have a Desktop, and a laptop on a desk, Kind of being the same. I rarely use a laptop on my lap.

    I prefer my desktops. (aging eyes need a BIG screen). Since i got an android phone I find myself using my laptops less when I'm away form the office/home.

    As implied if only one than no contest I'd have a desktop for power, performance, upgrade-ability, screen size or multiple screens, audio quality, hard drive space and speeds, cooling capacity, full size keyboard and mouse, SLI or Crossfire GPU's. Also much harder to drop, steal, and spills on a desktop only screw up the keyboard or mouse, no heat radiation on my twig and berries !

    My desktop is a bit like 'Triggers' broom' - I've had it for around ten years in which time it's had 3 new motherboards, several graphics cards, hard drives, RAM sticks. I've changed the case at least four times and had a selection of monitors.
    Now you wouldn't want to do that with a Laptop but equally you wouldn't use a Desktop for 'on the road' or sitting in the garden.
