secondhand laptops

i usually stay away from here....but
IMHO.....the pros to a laptop are...it's portable....easily
cons:..expensive to repair....if one thing goes wrong, you can bet that it's the most expensive thing on it. You can't just swap a keyboard out.....everything is kept in a tiny lil space. I would have another one....but if I do get another...it will be a desktop...and not a mac...although if you know what you are doing...they are considered to be brilliant. (by those brilliant mac owners)

Er, yes you can - it's easy on all but a very few laptops.mlb3c said:
The main point against laptops, IMO, is if you use if a lot then it's ergonomically very bad for your neck and/or shoulders (depending on what height you have it).

such is life....another con for a mac...you cant switch out the keyboards.....and for what you spend on them...you cant afford a chiropractor either....after awhile the popping in your neck gets to be like anything else you suffer with...you live with it...till it kills ya
i thought that perhaps a laptop might save me from divorce lol as im told i spend to much time on the desktop
