Whether you are a school kid,college student or working professional who work from home, laptop is the best choice for you as per current technology scenario is concerned. Unbranded Desktop computers may range lower and reachable within student budget, while the branded desktop computers lie in the same range that of laptops,but spending an extra 10,000 to 15,000 rupees for buying a laptop over desktop is worth purchasing. Lets quickly list out few advantages of laptop over desktop :
