To have them function in the office, you need as many cables as a desktop.  On top of that, you have more to worry about from a security stand point.  We run additional security measures on our laptops since they can be lost in the wild and we need to protect the data.  <br><br>That being said, for the home I would probably agree, both my wife and I have a laptop.  While not as affordable as a desktop, they are about at the right price point where you can justify the extra cost for the portability.  However, I still have a desktop and there is no way a laptop is going to take over that role for some time.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[zargon]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 24th 2008 10:25AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Laptops outship desktops for the first time worldwide]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/24/laptops-outship-desktops-for-the-first-time-worldwide/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/24/laptops-outship-desktops-for-the-first-time-worldwide/</guid><description><![CDATA[Id still rather use a desktop.<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[gareth]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 24th 2008 10:07AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Laptops outship desktops for the first time worldwide]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/24/laptops-outship-desktops-for-the-first-time-worldwide/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/24/laptops-outship-desktops-for-the-first-time-worldwide/</guid><description><![CDATA[For everyday at home usage, I'd have too agree.<br><br>"Bigger is better" "That's what she said!"]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Mobius_1]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 24th 2008 11:00AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Laptops outship desktops for the first time worldwide]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/24/laptops-outship-desktops-for-the-first-time-worldwide/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/24/laptops-outship-desktops-for-the-first-time-worldwide/</guid><description><![CDATA[I have grown so used to my laptop that the large screen and tall keys of a desktop just seem somewhat foreign to me.

Even in these mature markets, only about 2-3% of people may build their own desktops. In this particular statistic, you are right. In developing markets, the small price difference between desktops and laptops is still significant. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ashwin]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 24th 2008 1:36PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Laptops outship desktops for the first time worldwide]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/24/laptops-outship-desktops-for-the-first-time-worldwide/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/24/laptops-outship-desktops-for-the-first-time-worldwide/</guid><description><![CDATA[I don't have any hard numbers, but when considering the battery (and their propensity to die over time and need to be replaced) I wonder what the environmental impact of more laptops (over desktops) is?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Damo]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 24th 2008 10:39AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Laptops outship desktops for the first time worldwide]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/24/laptops-outship-desktops-for-the-first-time-worldwide/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/24/laptops-outship-desktops-for-the-first-time-worldwide/</guid><description><![CDATA[No matter how you look at is, the environmental impact of notebooks will be less that that for desktops (excluding all-in one's and Mac mini's). Notebooks are smaller and lighter, meaning less packaging and less fuel to ship them. Batteries, when disposed of properly, will not harm the environment as much as the higher power consumption of a desktop computer. These facts, along with the need for fewer cables, smaller power supplies, etc, make notebooks far more environmentally friendly. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ashwin]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 24th 2008 1:27PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Laptops outship desktops for the first time worldwide]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/24/laptops-outship-desktops-for-the-first-time-worldwide/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/24/laptops-outship-desktops-for-the-first-time-worldwide/</guid><description><![CDATA[At work i prefer Desktop PC, more power+big LCD and i am setting in the same place for 8 hours, At home however i prefer laptop as i can change my place and move it room to room.<br><br><br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ahmed Alzayani]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 24th 2008 10:47AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Laptops outship desktops for the first time worldwide]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/24/laptops-outship-desktops-for-the-first-time-worldwide/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/24/laptops-outship-desktops-for-the-first-time-worldwide/</guid><description><![CDATA[When I'm at home, my MBP is docked to a real keyboard/mouse and a 30" LCD.
