Laptops are smaller; easier to handle; usually come with standard 1 year warranty (sometimes up to 3)
PCs can be modified by the User easily, and usually have lots of compatibility issues with hardware (no doubt the large computer companies are consistently inundated with error faults, not related to their standard hardware)

And most Users (these days) would prefer a good laptop, unless they're into modifying their computer (for gaming etc; even though many "games" are online now)

Yes I say laptops (netbooks; notebooks; portables) are the way of the future now
I'm sure the next generation will laugh when we say we had these big computer boxes on or under our tables.
"But Dad, how did you walk around with that big box?"
Oh We didn't son. We had to stay where the box was, and not move
Son: "Huh"? :/

Oh and I'll just squeeze this in, I still like Dell
