<p>Do you think it is necessary to buy a lap top or should i settle for a desktop?</p>
<p>If you are going to buy, the laptop should be considered. If you already have desktop and are just taking it with, you may do that and then wait until later to see if you feel you need laptop. The majority now have laptops. A main advantage: when you really need to get something done, but there happens to be a noisy party going on your floor at the time, you can take the laptop elsewhere and do it.</p>
