Desktop computer.

My reasoning from a previous thread:

I'd only consider getting a laptop if I had to travel from Uni to home a lot but since I'm studying relatively near home, I think I'll hang on to my desktop.

Ps. Laptop screens are no-where big enough compared to desktops. Any attempts at trying to type large amounts of information is rendered futile for those of us with larger hands. [Ie. Me] and the in built mice are normally as impractical as a chocolate tea pot. By the time I've gotten the cursor to the desired location on the screen, I've worn a hole into the laptop about 2 inches deep and all that's left of my finger is a stump.

Otherwise... they're fine.




Promise.
