Do you still use a desktop PC?

[doonit]

Yes, with large monitor for movies in bed. We're a no-tv family

 

[gregmcc]

yes, gaming, programming.

 

[Balldrick]

I still use my pc. @ home and @ work. Reason being pc is just more powerful compared to similarly specced laptops is easier to upgrade easier to maintain. Oh and pc's ultimately us cheaper than laptops. Cheaper for better specs always better.

 

[yebosa]

Yes, Desktop with 3 x 21 inch monitors. More power, lots of storage.
Laptop for travel/mobile work along with 7 inch tablet and smartphone.

PC for photo editing and AV.

 

[D tj]

Desk top is a back-up to laptop.

 

[charlie_82]

Yes, for gaming.
With the easy scalability, I can't see desktops going away any time soon

 

[whatever_sa]

I am actually offended by the question.

hahah, of coarse PC! PC is here to stay, regardless of declining sales (however for work i am provided with a laptop).

24" LED screen vs ipad ... hahaha
i5 CPU vs little mobile processors... hahaa
microsoft natural keyboard vs on screen keyboard.. hahahaha
4K gaming vs ipad... haahHAHAHAHAH

I only find my smartphone useful when I am on the toilet...

 

[a03071992]

Yes, I have a laptop but hardly use it, only when traveling. Otherwise it is my desktop for gaming, studies and everything

 

[Cassady]

Desktop as media device at home. Hardly touch the work desktop anymore. Laptop goes between work and home, plugged into an external. iPad for the out and about.

 

[DeathStrike]

I have a gaming laptop. But still use my old PC as a media server.

One day when my gaming laptop is no longer working/upgradeable I will probably upgrade my PC.

It is cheaper to upgrade/buy PC.

Only reason I got the laptop was I needed a work laptop at the time and also needed a new gaming PC. So got both in one machine.

Desktops, laptop & tablet, it all depends where I'm working.

 

[Vis1/0N]

Desktop at work. Remoting to 4 other desktops and server and VM's for regular production work.

Desktop at home although the only time i switched on in the last month was to convert a DVD into a mkv file.
Laptop taken over esp since I pick up neighbours WIFI. A 9.7" Tablet for PDFs', 8" inch Tablet for media, 5.5" Smartphone daily driver and a older 4.7" for exclusive use whilst in the loo.

 

[Deezil]

Yes. 1 at work, 1 at home. Home PC is more a media device than anything else but capable of doing anything I need to do in an emergency

 

[fredeb]

At home I use my desktop as a multimedia device , surfing the net , gaming , designing etc.

I love it , nothing like a goood pc . Of course I use other devices too .

 

[Rouxenator]

Yes, I tiny mini ITX rig with a glorious AMD Athlon 2.2 Ghz AM1 CPU and 16GB RAM.

 

[jasweb]

I still prefer desktops. Easier to repair and upgrade.

What he/she said..

 

[stretty]

Desktop for Gaming. Easier to maintain, upgrade and/or repair.

 

[alexandergrahambell]

Desktop at home and at work. I can arrange the keyboard so my hands are happy and the screen can be moved to satisfy my eyes.

 

[Pikka12345]

Yes I do
