Personally I prefer to use a desktop day to day if possible, I like the large keyboard and mouse. But more often these days I find that my laptop is used as I need to travel from one place to another, sometimes my good old desktop doesn't get a lookin for weeks on end!
Of course the equivenent power in a desktop comes much cheaper than a laptop - I wonder if this is set to change sometime soon?
Which do you use more often?
