Desktop. Even though it's years old, it still runs everything fast.

I moved from a P2 laptop to a shiny new P4 2.4GHz desktop. The difference amazed me, and I was immensely impressed that it started up UnrealEd within ten seconds. Great.

Well, it depends on your lifestyle, if your a journalist on business travel, obiviusly a laptop is suitable, but if you are a computer graphics artist a desktop is a good idea probably cuz you won't be on your computer away from home.

Bottom line:

If your doing anything important and requires more then a keyboard, desktop.

If your looking to chat on MSN or write a few doc's, laptop (but a cheap, crappy old computer is recommended.)

But if you have an ac adapter or whatever the bwickles they're called and a mouse, a laptop is just as good as a desktop, but you get less bang for your buck if you don't mind slight bulkiness.
