TheReader Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 Laptop. When we moved to Brazil it was just too bulky/heavy to bring the desktop as we had only a small air shipment (one pallet) and our luggage, no sea shipment/container shipped over. We will likely bring over a desktop on our next US trip, now that they are more slimline and flat screen monitors. When we moved, flat screen monitors were very expensive and we had the old boxy kind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ma23peas Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 Laptop and other...I've really gotten accustomed to the Ipad for stuff...I use it for my co-op to keep attendance and record stuff on the engrade site I use...plus use it to keep a reference to Purdue's Online writing lab....it's been a great tool to carry with me! We only have one desktop that is used anymore, Rosetta Stone loaded on that computer so they kids use it..but my husband is a software guy so his company keeps him supplied in several laptops...I'm just not a mac person and he's having to take my Dell away and is making me switch to a mac...not happy.

Plink Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 I voted other. I find myself using my iPad more and more often, but still use the laptop for creating documents and other typing-intensive tasks. I can't imagine using a desktop anymore. Being tied to one location would drive me bonkers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beezus Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Desk top for now, but it's getting older. When we are ready to get a new one, I think it will be a laptop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MamaSheep Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Usually a desktop these days. I sort of moved in on dh's "backup" computer that he left at home when he took the rest off to an outside office a year or so ago. It's a pain to haul out my laptop.

Sunshine State Sue Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 I voted other: Desktop for (paid) work; laptop for home management, school and play. I voted laptop, but it's a trick question. I have the opposite of Laura. A laptop, provided by my company. I do everything on it, except the family checkbook. It is in a docking station and, honestly, rarely comes out except when I'm traveling (for pleasure or family obligations). Dh and ds share a desktop, though dh seems to have acquired an old laptop from work. Any new computers we buy will likely be laptops or netbooks or IPADs or ...

rwjx2khsmj Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Up to this afternoon I was on a desk top but it lived a long life and I've replaced it with a lovely, light, portable laptop. :001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BamaTanya Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Both. I use the laptop for convenience, but it's slower and bugs me. OTOH, I share the desktop with 5 kiddos, so . . . If I'm on early (before they are up), I use the desktop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
