Do you still use a desktop computer?

My take on a desktop is it has yet to outlive its usefulness and likely to remain so for quite some years to come. Though we have a lot more choices these days, desktops still dominate offices and homes.

These days people are using all kinds of gadgets for internet access. Gone are the days when desktop computers used to be the only instrument for the purpose. People access the net using tablet pcs, laptops and smart phones these days. However I still prefer a desktop computer for internet access and other applications. I think no other machine can beat desktop computers for the purpose. Desktops offer wider screens, fast internet access and a range of applications that you cannot use on other machines. Do you agree?

I also like desktop. My first computer was desktop. To work long period desktop is best. laptop have their own speciality. Battery backup, fast and we can carry it any where.

I’m an ardent fan of Desk top and remain as one. But a few a days back I bought an IPad with lots of Apps. related to my designing profession. Now, as an experiment I clubbed them and the results are not bad.

I am using a desktop computer right now at my workplace and loving it. The best part is its keypad which is allowing me lot of space to move my hands freely.

My daily work involves 3D animations, movies for TV ads. Except a desk top, all other genres are mere drawing room decorative pieces when it comes to tough jobs.

I use desktop replacement, with Windows 8 installed, and smart phones while on the go to stay always connected. In the recent updates, probably the user who have installed Bing desktop on xp, got corrupted. Windows 8 is a platform where both mobile and desktop work can be done simultaneously. :ohmy:

If key board is the main plus point of desk top, it is possible to attach the key board to lap top also.

yes I use desktop computer with latest LED screen. It is very comfortable to desktop only as i work for more hours. Laptop is only to work for less time.

I do not use desktop nowadays but sometime I use in office if required.

I haven't said main, it is one of the plus point... Yeah we can attach keyboard to laptop too, but that will definitely look weird. :laugh:

Only in office... Switched to tab also these days... But only problem is that for desktop you need to sit on a chair.. although a good part but not all the time. With lap you have the relaxation to sit at ur ease..

I'll use it for typing long articles only as it enhances speed as well feel comfortable while typing. I haven't used a desktop for ages but it is making me feel better at my work place.

I prefer to work with a desktop in my office and a laptop in my home.

I like working with desktop, it has XP on it, in my desktop replacement windows 8 which is fast and secure, I like both of it, but prefers desktop while at home, while outside I still use notebook and Android, to check updates. Windows 8 powered by gpu works like charm, and with two OS simultaneously, and preferably on most notebooks is the prime reason for dipping desktop popularity.

Yes.I use desktop computer.There is no controversy in using that.But the only thing is portability which is adjustable for me.

:) I am using laptop but my first choice is desktop. Maintinance of desktop is cheeper than laptop.

I have been using desk top computers since 1987, i.e. the first generation computers in India and still I have been
using the same though with due up-gradations at par with the improvements brought in the hardware and software
from time to time. Desk-top has become inevitable on my part. It suits my nature of work, operational skill and above
all my age. In the field of electronics, gadgets have been changing rapidly, and it is not affordable on my part to shift
to the latest introduction. As my family members comment on me...... my computer is my second wife. .....with which I
cannot dream of a separation.
