Hi Acke,

Though laptops and mobile gadgets are so popular these days I still believe that desktop industries are not losing.  A lot of people still uses desktop computers at home, in school for as an educational took, in offices and industries that can store large amount of data.  There are so just so many things that a desktop computer can do compared to laptops. 

Laptops have limitations as well.  To name a few below are the advantages of desktop computers over laptops and notebooks:

• Desktop computers can be easily upgraded.  It has an external drive that you can easily install PCI and IDE disks.
• Easy to repair and components are easy to replace as well.
• Desktop can give you the options to have a bigger and wider monitor, gives you comfort with using keyboards.
• Lastly, nothing can beat the performance of a desktop PC. It is much faster than laptops because it is equipped with multiprocessors that are designed to be rugged.

As I see it, desktop is for power and laptop for mobility.  So I don’t think we’re past the PC stage, and I don’t see that the desktop manufacturers are threatened.  They might have a decrease on sales but they are still an alternative for a laptop and tablets.  Manufacturers might probably support faster and high performance processors and improve their hardware designs.

Thanks friends for sharing your knowledge with me. Taylor Laura, while reading your opinion, I have learned many important information about desktops and laptops. I have arrived at the conclusion that the actual desktop market has been increasing and continues to do so. Yes, the mobile consumer market is or will be proportionally big in comparison but it is important to understand that the desktop market in not becoming smaller au contraire. Thanks, Taylor Laura, for sharing your opinion, which greatly helped me to understand about that market.
