I would go fifty-fifty on this one depending on my needs. Sometimes, laptops are handy especially when you are on the go. On the other hand, you would have to recharge your battery every now and then. My Dell laptop could go on for three hours without recharging. While there are a lot of things such as playing games and other heavy works that you would rather do in your desktop, or else end up crashing your laptop for heavy loads, I think people are gravitated more into buying laptops than desktop because it seems to be the latest fad for the time being.
