[QUOTE="rndmblk, post: 915156, member: 89746"] I currently have a 4 year old laptop and its fine for what I use it for. If I want to look up some info, have a general browse I'll use it on my lap. If I want to use it for longer I use it in my 'home office' - basically a spare bedroom with a desk. I use the same room on days where I'm working from home. It has an external monitor, mouse and keyboard so suits a full day's work. I haven't played video games for years. When I did I played some PC games but mostly on a console, the most recent being a PS3. Like a lot of people my age I dont have a lot of time for gaming but have been thinking it would be nice. The question then becomes whether I should have a console and laptop or go for a 'gaming laptop or maybe a regular laptop and gaming PC in the lounge. I like the laptop portability for quick use and like to be in the 'home office' for work. If I was gaming I'd prefer to do that in the lounge and use a controller. If I were to use a gaming PC my better half would prefer a smaller case so it's not so obvious! Probably the answer comes down to personal choice so anyone willing to share their preference would be most welcome :) [/QUOTE]
