Do You Own A Desktop or a Laptop? Why?

I just own a Desktop honestly, I just don’t have a laptop and though I hope to get one because I really do need it for a lot of different things, I don’t have one yet. Regardless, that doesn’t mean that I don’t like using a Desktop, I mean seriously, I love this computer with an absolute passion, and though it may be a few years old it still runs Minecraft really well. Plus, it has a pretty good amount of space that I really do doubt I’m gonna run out of anytime soon, so with that out of the way I really like this computer. Now as to why I have a Desktop is pretty simple, it’s the computer I was given a long time ago, essentially the younger me about 6ish years ago maybe 7 decided she wanted to play games and used this computer. Now of course at the time the computer wasn’t fully mine, but eventually I was slowly but surely given this computer bit by bit as the years went by, until eventually it became fully mine and now sits in my room. What about you? Do you own a Desktop or a Laptop? Any reason for that?

Keyboard & mouse are better on a desktop, 8f maybe not the speaker
Also desktop generally runs faster

 

I own a desktop and 70% of it is in my ownership, 30% of it is parents, I share with them because they use it for other important purposes.

 

I use a desktop, which I built myself back in August. I chose to build a desktop instead of buying a laptop since I don’t travel much (especially in these Covid times) and I wanted to learn how a computer works and how to build one. Also, the parts I found and later built with were much more powerful than a laptop’s specs, so I have much better performance now than I would have had on a laptop.

 

I own both but I primarily use my desktop. I like having plenty of storage and being able to use multiple monitors, it makes it very easy to open a lot of tabs and keep track of them. I play a lot of games too and having a desktop makes them run faster than a laptop would. We do have pretty common power outages here though so I use my laptop moderately often.

 

I had a laptop for YEARS, it was a more powerful laptop of its time (like 2010) so it lasted me so long, and still chills in my room. While I couldn't play any very demanding games, I could play games such as Paladins, League of Legends, and other small games. Other than that, I'd use it for Youtube, Netflix, school, etc.

In June 2020 I got my first ever desktop pc, and boy do I love it. I've upgraded it a little bit over the past two years and worked on my setup but it allowed me to finally play games I was never able to before - while I had a PS3 and PS4, all the newer games didn't run that well but they looked amazing on my pc. I vividly remember the first games I played - GTA V and Bright Memory. Especially BM, a game with beautiful visuals, I was taken aback. I always wanted to get a pc to play all the games I couldn't so I'm very happy with where I am now.

Other than games, I also use my new pc for school and art, it can finally run Adobe programs, like Photoshop and After Effects, really well without crashing or being ridiculously slow so that's always a plus. :)

 

Both. I used to play games on my laptop, but it ended up turning into a school laptop now since I have a desktop that is so much better than the laptop. It's so hard trying to keep school and games on one PC/laptop, especially when those games can get distracting...

 

I personally own both (except my desktop could have just died so rip). I mostly use my desktop for playing pc games, because I play a lot of steam games so it's just easier to use my desktop. However, for anything else I use my laptop. With me being in college right now and now having access to my desktop the majority of the time I have been getting more use to using my laptop for absolutely everything.

 

I own both a laptop and a desktop. I do about 5% of schoolwork on my desktop because I sometimes want the luxury of being able to use both monitors and about 95% gaming with PC games that wouldn't work as well on my laptop. My laptop is strictly for schoolwork and it is very convenient to be able to take my laptop everywhere so I don't have to do work from home.

 

Back in 2013 I played mineplex on a very old 2007 laptop. After a few years I switched to pocket edition, which soon became bedrock, where I played mineplex bedrock there. A couple years later I got an Xbox, which I used up from 2017-last week. I realized my old pc (2017 core i3 ) was able to run minecraft. I am using that now
