A laptop with a 22 in. monitor is expensive.
The battery in my desktop hardly ever needs charging.
I have never dropped my desktop.
I have never run out of USB ports with a desktop.
And the number 1 reason to have a desktop is…
You can not bring your desktop home from (with) work with you.

Laptops are very fragile, give a keyboard that I can thump, plenty of memory over the touch pad of the laptops!

Desktop laptops are too fragile and none have 5 TB of memory onboard and those tiny keyboards and funky mouse pads.. Yeeeee – uk

After using a laptop exclusively since mid-2006, I purchased a monster desktop (more accurately, "floortop" because of its size) last spring. Why? Could I afford a laptop with 8 M RAM, 750 M HDD, and a Core 2 Quad CPU at 2.83 Ghz? Don't be absurd.

Sure, I still use the laptop with my wireless network in the house & when I travel; but the desktop is hard to beat for everyday use!
