I hate not having a real number pad. It would be cool to sit at the Mcdonalds with wifi and do more work on my lunchbreak, though.

I have one of each. An old laptop and a new desktop that I built myself. Dual processors, 2 gig Ram, 2 19" monitors for online trading. Probably going to get another 2 monitors too.

Will probably buy a new better laptop for travel and surfing in bed.

No lie. Today a colleague offered to give "My 14 y/o Son the Tech-head" all of his old desktop PC parts including a high-end 19" CRT monitor.

Christmas came early this year!

You talk about an excited 14 y/o boy!

They've gotten cheaper. They're lightweight and portable. Almost anything you can do on a desktop, you can do on a laptop.
