We are living in an era where everything is pretty much computerized. From building software's, designing websites, monitoring patients in a hospital, booking online tickets, investing in share market, taking an online course (even exam) to finding the perfect soulmate via online dating service, we need computer in our day-to-day life. It has become an integral part of our life and along with time we are getting more and more dependent on it. As per our needs we have different types of computer which is listed as follows.

• Desktop computer – It consists of separate components like cabinet (where motherboard, CPU, HDD, RAM etc is there), monitor, speakers and keyboard + mouse.
• Laptop Computer – It has a clamshell form factor and is much smaller than a desktop. The components which I have mentioned above is fitted in one place.
• Tablet computer – A tablet computer is a unibody design mobile computer having touch-screen display and battery in a single unit which weights less than 1/4th of a laptop.

In most of the cases when we need a computer for our work a deskTop computer is better than a laptop. ( Considering that we do not have to move from one place to another while using a computer.) Here are some of the most important factors which shows the advantages.

• Lots of internal memory / storage space : We can have lots of internal memory as well as storage space in case of Desktop. Thanks to the advanced desktop motherboards having support of upto 128GB of RAM and with 6 SATA ports you can have petabytes of storage inside your RIG.
• Bigger display : You can have bigger display in case of desk-top PC. Buy a big monitor and enjoy the high-definition truly. Laptops are limited to 19 inch only whereas desktop can have 30 inch + monitors.
