Default laptops

I dropped the desktop for a laptop when laptops became more powerful,
quite a few years ago. I have beside me a 4GB, and 2 2GB 2.5" USB power
HDs. That's enough storage for anything I need.

I'm also in my 70's and have back issues, don't play power games.
Sitting at the desktop was not enjoyable anymore. Damn 'golden years'
my foot! Needing a quick lookup on Google was inconvenient on the
desktop while my laptop just stands up beside my chair in sleep mode and
is ready in seconds.

It's more of a lifestyle thing.
