PC or Laptop?

Forget the computer and get a ho-ho-ho for Christmas, already dressed in her Christmas stockings.



Note: I may be influenced by too much Saints Row.

I've been down both routes in the past few years, and for me it comes down to this:

Do you really want to play games? An by that I mean stuff like Crysis 2, not flash games or MMORPGs that can run on a toaster.

If you answer yes, then go for desktop. Gaming laptops are a compromise, they'll be enormously expensive for something that isnt very powerful, and uses its battery in under an hour.

But even if you go with a desktop, you will need to upgrade it for games in a couple of years.

If you can be not bothered about games,, just buy a laptop that has the best screen and battery life you can find and forget about graphics.
