Laptop or Desktop?

[eXero]

I am really at a loss on which one to get/save for.

I already have a laptop, it sucks ass, but it works, and I can bot on it, browse the internet, skype, MSN, Vent, etc. I cannot do 3d graphics nor android development on it which I want to be able to do, so I am either going to get an i7 laptop, or desktop. I just cant decide which one to get. I really cannot make up my mind.

A desktop would be cool because I could dual monitor and game on it, get a cool keyboard, mouse, headset etc, but it would be a little bit more money than a new laptop.

If I got the laptop, I would have no need for a keyboard, mouse, although I would still get a headset. Here is my laptop choice:

I would go with the desktop.

Desktop is like 2x as much lol. If you're willing to spend that much I'd go for desktop, otherwise if money matters go laptop.

It's just so much more expensive, but it's the one I really want.

I will have to make about $1500+ to get everything for the desktop. Shouldn't be hard...

If you want to game get a Desktop, there much better for running multiple things.

I could game on the laptop as well, but I know what you mean.

Desktops are much better

1. Change your ram to 2x4
2. Go for i7 2600k, if you plan on overclocking
3. Current case got horrible airflow. Get Coolermaster HAF912 instead
