Desktop Computers

The Benefits of Desktops

While laptops may seem more convenient than desktop computers on the surface, many professionals often prefer desktops over laptops. First and foremost, if you're willing to give up portability, you'll definitely get a more powerful computer for your money by opting for a desktop. Whether you're searching for a desktop for the whole family or just for you, a desktop computer allows you to work efficiently and quickly without worrying about crashes or viruses. Desktop computers give you the ability to upgrade the specs on your machine and easily add more RAM or an additional hard drive to store large videos or photos.

The Benefits of Laptops

A laptop computer is a self-contained computer in a small package that has all the circuitry built into one streamlined device. Laptops usually include a keyboard and a touchpad mouse, and some models have touchscreens. Because laptops are smaller, they have fewer upgradable options. Laptop computers have the benefits of being easy to transport both from room to room or around the globe. In addition, laptops have little to no cable clutter and are simple and easy to set up.

Which Style Is Right for You?

First and foremost, ask yourself how you plan to use the computer. If your primary computing activities involve social media, emails, paying bills, and surfing the web, a laptop is a great choice. If you're doing all that plus storing music and videos and creating complex spreadsheets, reports, and presentations, a laptop might still be the right choice if you choose one with sufficient storage and processing speed. If gaming, intense graphics, sophisticated photo editing, and video production are part of your routine, a desktop is more likely to be your best choice.
