Desktop vs laptop : Why i prefer desktop to laptops

admin — Tue, 07 Dec 2010 08:00:28 +0000

I really love desktop pc’s though they lacks some features when compared to laptops for eg portability,power consumption and wireless accessories.

But i love desktops because they are cheaper,faster,easily upgradable,you can use them for hours and i can surf internet much more faster on it.Smaller or delicate things like laptops needs to be handled with care,smaller and portable things have a much higher chances of getting damaged.Laptops are very useful pieces of equipment, but you should always buy it with the warranty on them because you never know what could happen. Desktops are not easily destroyed, because they never moved.

Future updates : You can easily update to the newest technology and better hardware at any point of time in desktops as compared to laptops.You can even try to install updates by your own.You have limited options for laptops while desktops can be easily updated.

More economical : It is more economical when compared to laptops.

Love gaming and multimedia : I enjoy playing games and watching movies on desktop.It is a bit smaller than pc but is quite impressive.Good sound,better graphics and bigger screen really makes the enjoyment double.

review

We can say that this lappy is a mid netbook chain between the Mini 9 and Mini 12.The main thing which we all like in netbooks are its compact size.This one is also cool gadget as far as its size is concerned.keyboard is actually a tad larger than the one on the Mini 12, but still with the keyboard size is 92% less of a traditional laptop it can be said that
it is more than a mobile but less than a laptop.You can enjoy the views at 16:9 aspect ratio.It has optional built in GPS system.You can also get it customized in a larger 160GB hard drive for $25 or a slightly faster Intel Atom N280 CPU, also for $25.

Battery Life

The battery is especially bulky and sticks out from the bottom of the system, raising up the rear end.The Dell Inspiron Mini 10v ran for 5 hours and 45 minutes on our video playback battery drain test in Cnet test.Cnet reviews find it very impressive, even for a low-power Netbook.
