I was having a friendly discussion with someone this morning about PC and Laptops for work/education stuff, he suggested that I could use a chromebook for all this stuff and this would be a good idea and make things easier. I strongly disagreed with this, mainly because I hate laptops, the keyboard and touchpad make me angry and my PC does everything I need. Most things are synced to my phone for the rare times I may want to add something while out and about. So I thought I’d come here and seek other peoples opinions on laptops vs pc your needs? also if you are feeling bored and want to head on over to the survey ive linked and fill in a few questions I can more easily gather data to make into fun graphs, which if the data agrees with me, I can shove it in his face or should I be in the minority I can let him have this win.
A monitor and keyboard/mouse that you can attach to your laptop gives you the best of both worlds.
But a desktop/workstation that you can leave on and double as a server for some things is nice to have.
Yes I fine with both. I also bought a cheap used Dell Lattitude laptop I use as a always-on server.
I use my old laptop as a server, and so far no issues with leaving it on 24/7
