Maybe because laptops are more worth it? Honestly, I don't even see the point in desktops these days unless you're huge on PC gaming.
Laptops are more expensive than desktops and generally far less powerful. psyduck;

Also, I hate using laptops. I prefer having a mouse on the side and nice keyboard in front of me with a monitor to look up at all while being comfortable and not shelling out money for those extra parts when they'd normally come packed in for free and can be placed wherever I please.

Lawlz explained it perfectly.

Oh shit my hard drive just broke, oh well, 1 trip to newegg.com and it's fixed for under $50

Mouse by my side? Check. Did I buy it? Nooope. spam;

Also, I like using my computer wherever I want in whatever position I want, so there's the big reason I use a laptop.

And the power difference is pretty much not an issue unless, like I said, you're big into gaming or have some other reason (which nobody here does) to absolutely need a desktop.

Who the fuck needs the Adobe Creative Suite? psyduck;

Also, I've never needed to upgrade, because I don't do anything that would require that.

adobe flash adobe photoshop etc

Quite a few people use it, and to get a laptop with comparable specs to a desktop, you're dealing out about an extra 66%.

so you're saying every every thirteen year old kid on the internet is a professional because they use photoshop and whatnot that's pretty cook

it's about average today but you could get a powerful desktop for a fair price and a laptop with equal power would be almost twice the price

i don't know because the only thing i remember on my g5 is that it said "YOU NEED ONE GIGABYTE OF RAM TO USE THE ADOBE CREATIVE SUITE 3" and killed itself caterpie;

Creative Suite isn't necessary for that. Hell, not even a modern version of Photoshop is necessary for anything a "thirteen year old kid on the internet" would do.

Christ, even Photoshop 5 does what I need.

Oh, those.

Yeah, an old version of Photoshop could still do that, actually. Believe it or not, signatures like that existed before CS3.

The difference is hardly noticeable. In fact, if you know what you're doing, there is no difference.
