my problem with laptops is that when i'm at home, i want to hook up external mouse and keyboard, and put it on some books on a desk to get the display at the right height (or plug it into an external display). if you're doing all that, a desktop makes some sense.

laptop using all the built in stuff is bad ergonomics.

My workplace:

- MacBook

- Apple USB Keyboard

- Logitech Mouse

- Apple Cinema Display HD 23"

Plus, I can carry all my work environment anywhere I go. If I want to be with my family and I don't need a lot of concentration I can take the MacBook to any room.
