depends... 'cause it is true laptops come in handy @ college and universities... but if you area software geek, and as us (geeks) you like having unuseful software in your pc,loads of music, and excesive games, i'd recommnd a desktop...

but, if you have both, in addition to a PDA, it's much better...

since i got my laptop i'm rarely on my desktop (which is only about 2 months old).
It is practically impossible to teach good programming style to students that have had prior exposure to Basic; as potential programmers they are mentally mutilated beyond hope of regeneration.

I'd go with the laptop.
I am nothing special; of this I am sure. I am a common man with common thoughts, and I’ve led a common life. There are no monuments dedicated to me and my name will soon be forgotten, but I’ve loved another with all my heart and soul, and to me, this has always been enough. -The Notebook

Ill give Dell the fact that they are cheap however if you want to keep your laptop for more then 2 years then i have found that they arn't the greatest for surviving. Plus im not sure i would trust a Dell on my lap especially with all the explosions and such that i have seen on the internet. I know they have "fixed" the problem but i would still be suspicious.
