1 There are a couple of reasons why I started buying all-in-one super-laptops. One is that I don't sweat this kind of thing any more. The graphics in this computer can't be swapped, so I don't have to think about it.

2 There are a lot of good reasons to go with a laptop these days.  But I'll still stick with a desktop for a primary computer, if for no other reason that I prefer a real keyboard and larger monitors.

(Yes, I'm sure I can attach a full-size keyboard to a laptop.  I don't care.  I'm just an old-fashioned duck.)

If it is any consolation, I am the same way.  Since I do not muck around with the graphics card or anything else inside the case any more than I have to, it works for me.

C.T.

4 I'm still a desktop type of guy, too, but for a different reason:  I'm too cheap to shell out the $$$ for a laptop with the kind of graphics horsepower needed to run WoW well.

When I got this computer new in 2007, for about $650, it did everything really well and needed nothing, but the "windows experience" thingy reported that the video card was the slowest part of the system.  After I got into WoW it needed more graphics horsepower; I swapped in a new video card and then "windows experience" told me that the processor was the limiting factor.

There's no pleasing some people, I guess.

6 Got the laptop, and agree with the laptop camp, but I've got this NICE Lian-Li case sitting by me BEGGING to be built and I'm, well I feel very strongly both ways?
