Laptop vs. Desktop computer

So you're looking to buy a new computer, but unsure which to buy?

Laptop vs. Desktop computer

They used to say, the laptop was only good for those that travel, but those days are long gone! Welcome to the new world of "in house" traveling!

Now you can take the computer to your kitchen, deck, bedroom and basement! No more sitting at the computer desk.

My recommendation? You will need to purchase a wireless router. The Linksys or Belkins seem to be the most popular.

What kind of laptop should you buy? Any basic laptop these days has wireless capabilities and if you are a basic user, there is no need to spend $1200 anymore. I am recommending to users buying a 2nd computer to look at the Acer. The lowest end model is running around $400 at Microcenter (with about $30 in memory upgrade needed to run Vista)...a deal you really can't beat!
