Opinion needed--laptops or desktops

[ilovetheusers]

amyb wanted a laptop so she went and got one, most of the time people get them, not because they need them, but they want one.

That Sager is very good, but its not a Pentium M, its gonna be heavier, less battery life, need more cooling (more than 1 fan for a centrino notebook).

Being practical is a great thing, but then we wouldnt satisfy any of our wants rather than needs

It's also twice as fast for less $ and to me that's far more important (again, games). Also there's almost nowhere you can go that doesn't have an outlet nowadays. As for cooling, laptop fans are pretty quiet and I have tinnitus so the more noise the beter!

Exactly why I said only get a laptop if you really need the portability...

Like I said earlier nothing and I mean nothing beats a Sager. We've had several different brands of notebooks up here at work and Sager is by far the best. The company I work for will no longer even sniff at Dell, Toshiba, IBM, HP/Compaq or Panasonic lappies. The only other lappie they've looked at are Micron's and even they pale in comparison. What I like best about them is boy are they easy to work on. DVD, HD, Memory, VC, and the processor are easy to get to and work with.

That being said amy doesn't work in an extreme Arctic environment so the Dell should suit her needs just fine.

No, don't live in the extreme Arctic, just the extreme Maryland environs..
