What is better Pc or a Laptop/Notebook ?

Answer 1

If you're going to college, a laptop/notebook is easier to carry around, but they often only last for about four years. If you want something you can use and update for the next ten years, get a pc

Answer 2

There are different schools of thought on this.

Some say have the bleeding edge, under a year old, super-gamer-machine. That costs money, and after a while the payoff for that lifestyle decreases significantly.

Others say that their favorite computer (c64) is the greatest thing and shouldnt have been discontinued in the 1980s. New things sometimes do great.

Some say go laptop, go super-pda, go desktop, go Big-iron supercomputer with a terminal.

Every school of thought has measures of goodness, and justifications for why its the best. The one I ascribe to isnt the "best" because "best" is meaningless in this context. Its functional.

Figure out the specific jobs you have for the computer. Write them down. Find a computer that does that well. Stick to it. If you think about a new computer it better do the job well enough that the cost of the purchase is paid off by the betterness of the job. Example: If you work in insurance and have ancient big-iron and a wyse terminal, but it does the job, keep it. Dont waste capital getting win/tel/pentium/ bleeding edge paperweight. If its not going to increase your functionality, or have a huge margin of performance based on your metrics, dont buy it.

I would say figure out what you need, including software, performance, cost, and life. Then look for a computer that fits your needs. Dont get a new one till the old one doesnt work anymore, and repairing costs more than replacement.

Ancient computers are sometimes the hardest for the wrong-sorts (like script kiddies) to hack. Its not worth it for them, and thats not bad. They also tend to be strongly vetted, with known/published problems mostly resolved.

Desktops are bigger and not near as mobile, but are more versatile for modification, and easier to fix.

Notebooks are mobile, but in most cases cost more. If you compared a 900 dollar notebook to 900 dollar PC, the PC would most always be more powerful.

Notebooks nearly always have some kind of $100-$250 rebate though.
