1488778 2022-10-10 06:39:00 Desktop for me, coz I won't spend the level of cash needed to get a semi decent gaming rig on a laptop.
Laptop is really just a standby option for the inevitable day when my PC dies and I need to find parts or software to try to resurrect or replace it. The laptop becomes an intermediary tool in getting stuff onto or off the desktop and to keep me in touch with email etc until the Desktop is up and running again.
Phone is a PITA mostly, and I try to keep installed softwares to a bare minimum on it.

Surely you jest ? ? ?

There's no need to worry that you don't play games; - there's an app does it for you while you sleep.

1488781 2022-10-10 18:08:00 I have multiple desktop PCs also. They are much easier to modify and upgrade. I do have laptops as well but use them when mobility is needed. Forget about doing anything useful on a tablet except watching YouTube. Agent_24 (57)

Thanks R2, just what I needed :):)

My son thinks I am mad, he spends hours racing cars with people around the world. I think he is mad. ;)

I’m with you Ken, don’t think there is a game on any of the computers here and couldn’t name a game going back to DOS days.

Life’s short, you sleep 33.333% of it, work 2.226% of it, so why waste what’s left playing silly bloody games? ;)

And what do you suggest the other 64.44% should be spent doing then?
Although I think I've worked more than 2% of the time. Guess the poor always do.

To escape the thoughts of one's inevitable death, of course....

1488786 2022-10-12 05:47:00 Well my laptop screen died yesterday and it only has HDMI which none of the spare monitors I have use that connection so its onto the TV. SWMBO is getting a new laptop next week which I will have to setup for her and I'll grab her old one for now as can't afford 2 laptops at once.
