PC VERSUS LAPTOP TOPICS
Why do retail stores seem to display more laptops than desktop tower computer?
NationSites believes that big box companies can sell more laptops because consumers think they are getting a better deal because they cost more and they are portable. Just because you pay more does not mean you are going to have a better experience. Laptops can be stolen more easily which increases the cost of ownership. Not only that, laptops fail at a higher rate than mid-tower computers. Also, laptops cannot usually be recycled into future rebuilds. All of these detriments increase the price of ownership way beyond practical.
